Artisan Market Applications
Thank you for your interest in vending at our Artisan Market! Here is some information about the next market; then, you can find our Producer Application below. The deadline for application for the next market is April 28th, 2024.
Where: the next Artisan Market will take place at our Packard Cafe location, 1200 Packard Ann Arbor, MI 48104
When: Saturday, June 22nd, from 9 am - 3pm.. Information on set up and tear down schedule TBA.
We will have tables set up on the ground floor. Tables are 6x3 ft, with two artists sharing one table giving everyone a 3x3 ft space to display their work. As in past years, Argus staff will ring items up through our point of sale system using barcodes unique to each vendor that will need to be applied to products. Sales are split 70/30, with 70% being paid out to vendors.
We have limited space at these markets and are typically able to host around 20 vendors. While we have many artists who sell their work in the store year-round, and some of those may attend the artisan markets, we also find it is a great opportunity for those who don’t sell their work in the store to be highlighted at the Artisan Market. Each year more and more people are interested in attending, so please be aware we have a big pool to choose a small number of applicants from. We will put those interested on a wait list in the case that accepted vendors are unable to attend.
The open application period is March 31 - April 28th. Artists will be informed of their acceptance soon after. If you have questions about this year's winter market or the application, please reach out to [email protected].
