This is the previous "OPEN APPLICATIONS and WAITLISTS" post that was previously on Facebook.
If you are an artist, handmaker, tarot reader, author, henna tattoo artist, vintage vendor or crafter, please apply for some of the markets. These shows are not for corporate businesses, storefront businesses or MLM's and direct sale companies. These are for artists, unique services, handmade items and vintage vendors. Some exceptions do exist such as homegrown local brands, plant vendors, vintage vendors, vinyl collectors and comic dealers.
Thank you for checking us out and for taking the time to apply for some shows. The alliance looks forward to working with you! Please help us share the events and invite friends to them; these are free ways to help support small and local.
