Makers & Boutique Application OCT 22-24

We are curating a three‑day fall market featuring antique and vintage dealers, clothing boutiques, jewelry makers, small‑batch goods, handmade treasures, and home décor. Our goal is to create an elevated, vintage‑inspired shopping experience filled with warm fall charm and high‑quality vendors.

Inspired by the feel of upscale vintage markets, we are looking for vendors who offer original art, antiques, boutique apparel, jewelry, handmade items, home décor, outdoor furnishings, consumable treats, seasonal plantings, and other unique finds that contribute to a cohesive, curated atmosphere. This is a juried event, and vendors are selected based on variety, originality, booth presentation, and overall quality. We aim to build a lineup where vendors complement one another and help create a memorable guest experience.

All booths must provide an engaging, visually appealing setup with strong merchandising, cohesive branding, and attention to detail. Clear photos or links to online photos must be included with your application and should showcase both your products and your booth display.

We accept a limited number of vendors in each category, and all approved vendors must commit to attending all three days of the event.

Overnight security will be provided for all three days; however, vendors are responsible for securing their own merchandise and displays.
