The Emerging Artisans Program supports and encourages up-and-coming artisans, musicians, and craftspersons. The Program provides a very low-cost venue for these artisans to display, sell, and demonstrate their handcrafted art/wares. Demonstrations of artistic and craft processes are encouraged. We are seeking program participants at this time, from as wide a range of artistic and craft styles and techniques as possible.
Held in The Open Studio
Rates for a 10'x10' space for the 2018 season are $10.00 per week, with a minimum 4-week commitment, paid up front, after which you have the option to renew. The Program will run for 17 Sundays – you may prepay for the entire season at a discounted rate of $150.00. There is no credit for unused weeks; there will be credit for cancellations due to severe weather or other non-foreseen events. Vendors must provide their own table/tent and signage as needed. Electricity will be provided as required.
