Jurying Criteria:
- Our emphasis is on handmade, unique, small-batch, eco-friendly artisan goods. We strongly recommend that applicants focus on one category of goods for our markets.
- We do not accept multilevel marketers (MLM), businesses who primarily sell cannabis-related products, Cottage Foods, traditional fine art & photography, goods not made by the applicant, a collection of other artisans' goods curated by the applicant, or goods not made in the United States.
- Each market's applicants are juried by an impartial jury, independent of prior market selections.
- We look for a well-developed brand and signature style in every aspect of your work and display, including prominent, creative signage and presentation consistent with the quality and creativity of goods.
- We evaluate booth presentation/display and signage by requiring a professional quality photo of this. For those who don’t have an actual market setup image, we recommend a sample booth display be set up in home or yard. We need more than a table display.
- Web presence is required, either website, e-commerce site, and/or social media. (Be sure the web links you provide work and that your sites are actually live. If your sites aren't live, don't include them on your application.)
