Houston Fiber Fest – Houston, TX

SAVE THE DATE!!

HOWDY, Y’ALL! Did you miss us? We missed you! We are so excited to announce that Houston Fiber Fest will return in 2025! We’re making some changes this year.

The biggest and most obvious one you’ll notice is that our vendor hall will only be open on Friday and Saturday this year. Venue rental costs have skyrocketed since the start of the pandemic, and unfortunately our income has not.
There is also a possibility we may have to charge attendees a small entrance fee. We’re exploring sponsorship options to see if we can avoid that. Since we are not independently wealthy (If you know any lottery winners, please send them our way!), this event has to pay for itself in order to be sustainable. We’re doing what we can to try and make that happen.
We are run entirely by volunteers, which helps a lot. The income from an entrance fee, plus the money we save by not renting the vendor hall for a third day, was enough to balance the budget for this year. We know that’s not the best news, but we’re going to have a fun year anyway!

HFF CHARITY

 

The 2023 Houston Fiber Fest charity focus is related to a topic that touches the lives of many in the Texas area: breast health, education, and cancer awareness. In Texas, breast cancer has been the leading cancer type since 2016. This year, we will be highlighting two organizations that support quality breast health care and providing services to breast cancer survivors.
