The Festival brings together a highly engaged crowd of woodworkers, cabinet makers, influencers and wood enthusiasts who are excited to see tools, techniques and products they can use in their own shop. It’s a fun, hands-on, conversation-driven event, not your traditional trade show. The event will be held in downtown Austin on September 25th-27th, 2026 at the Palmer Events Center.

Exhibitors love it because they can demo products, talk directly with real buyers, eat a delicious taco and build long-term brand awareness within the woodworking community.

If you’re interested, you can apply here.

If you have unpublished poetry, fiction, nonfiction, photographs, or visual art that you'd like the New Croton Review to consider, please email it to Review@CrotonArts.org. The Review is published worldwide on Amazon (full-color paperback and Kindle), and on Google Play and Apple Books (digital e-book).

Many of our submitters include a short bio along with their work. We'll use that as a first draft for the bio we publish with accepted work. You can edit that draft when you grant us the right to publish your work. We encourage visual artists to tell us a little about their work (as per the submission guidelines on our website).

Our website (https://newcrotonreview.com/) has links to the current and past issues, news, events, free digital subscriptions, full contributor search, and more. The Review is published by the Croton Council on the Arts (CCoA) which is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit in Croton-on-Hudson, NY.

2026 Virtual Art Residencies Open Call is now live!
We’re excited to announce four virtual residencies for the upcoming year: Ocean, Our Land, Atmos-fear, and Sustainability. Each program invites artists from around the world to explore our planet’s most urgent environmental themes through their own creative lens inspired by the UN Ocean Decade and UNESCO’s Sustainable Development Goals.
Whether your work speaks to the ocean, the land, our climate, or the interconnected systems that sustain life, we’d love to see your vision. One application, four opportunities.

There is no fee to apply, but artists pay for their own participation in the different residencies (fees range from $290 to $450).
Apply now! https://www.mokuartstudio.com/open-call-residency-programs-2026
Let’s imagine a better future together.
