Indie Craft WINTER Experience

Thank you for your interest in participating in the Indie Craft Spring Experience. The Indie Craft Experience is an indoor, highly curated marketplace. Now in it's 21st year, it is the longest running artist market in Atlanta. 

Please review our vendor policies document available in the application before submitting.

Our priority deadline is August 1st for any accomodation requests (location, electricity access, etc.). After this date, we will continue to review applications based on media-specific availability. Any category noted as CLOSED has met it's cap with applications added to a waitlist and reviewed only should space open up.

Priority deadline applicants will be notified by August 15th. Later applicants will be notified on a rolling basis after this date.

Variety is one of the things that makes our markets special. To ensure a balanced mix of offerings, we limit the number of vendors in each medium and product category. This creates a better shopping experience for guests and helps vendors stand out with less direct competition. Note that ceramics and jewelry are typically the first categories to fall onto a waitlist.

The Winter Experience showcases work that blurs the line between craft and fine art, offering a thoughtfully edited marketplace rooted in innovation, skill, and material excellence.

A highly curated selection of niche vintage is reviewed for quality, rarity, and point of view. This offering presents an elevated vintage marketplace that complements the contemporary craft showcased.

Artisan food selections center on flavor as a form of craft. Preference is given to a tightly edited group of food makers working in small batches, highlighting originality, technique, and intentional sourcing.

Food trucks, carts and tents should use the Food Truck Application for this event. All food is set up immediatley outside the event's entry point.

If you would like to host a hands-on maker station or promote a business that is in alignment with Indie Craft Experience's values, aesthetics and overall vibe, please use the Community Booth Application.
