A non-juried event accepts its exhibitors on a first-come, first-serve basis. (You could show up to find 25 other vendors doing the same as you). The jurying process usually involves sending in a portfolio that includes photos of your work and a resume, along (sometimes) with a jurying fee. A selection committee will look over your photos (or samples) and will then make their choice based on originality, creativity, marketability, general appeal, and quality of craft and booth design.
