Reuse Artist Vendor Opportunities
*All vendor spots are now filled*
You are still welcome to apply - we will reach out if any spots open up.
-
$20 booth fee
Space for a 6-foot table and two chairs on our shaded portico. No tent needed!
Bring your own table, chairs, and decor (however, if equipment is a limiting factor for you to participate, let us know and we might be able to help).
Set up your booth between 11-11:45AM. The event starts at 12PM and ends at 3PM.
There will likely not be space for extra fixtures beyond the table and chairs.
-
As with all our reuse markets, goods offered for sale on Summer Sundays should contain at least 50% reuse materials. Not all vendors need to sell goods related to the theme of each market, but we may favor vendors whose offerings are a good match - for example, reuse artists who create sustainable fashion and accessories for our September event featuring Sustainable Style.
-
As always, we aim to offer community events that are reflective of the unique diversity of our community. For this Summer Sundays series, reuse artist selection will hold space for emerging artists and traditionally under-served artists, artists of color, artists who are part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, and artists with disabilities.
-
Unlike our larger reuse market weekends, there is one application for all four events - just check the box for the date(s) you’d like to participate. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis, and applications will close on the first of each month for that month’s event (except September!).
