Booth/Exhibitor Information:
This is a juried market and submission of application does not constitute acceptance. As an arts organization, we prioritize hand-made, hand-crafted, and original goods to maintain a high standard of quality among our vendors. In addition, we strive to provide a market with diverse options, and may limit the number of accepted vendors within a category of product. Food vendors and business displays will not be accepted.

10’ x 10’ Booth, $50: This size is intended for vendors who are used to filling a standard 10’ x 10’ space. Tents are not required, as the event is indoors, but may be set-up if it is used for decoration and display.
2’ x 6’ Table Booth, $30: This space is for vendors who only require a 2’ x 6’ table. Table must be supplied by the vendor and all displays and products must be contained to the table area. Artists must provide their own displays. Electricity is available on a limited basis but must be requested on the Market Application; artists are responsible for their own extension cords (we recommend a minimum of 50’). 

Check-in and Set-up:
Artist check-in and set-up will be Friday, December 5 from 9:00am - 11:00am. All artists and booths must be set up and open by Friday, December 5 at noon. Any artist not arriving or calling by 10:30 am will be considered a no-show.
