The market is located in the parking lot adjacent to the Winder Binder Gallery of Folk Art on Frazier Avenue...in the heart of the Northshore, located only 50 feet from north end of the Walnut Street Bridge and looking down onto Coolidge Park.
Spaces are limited and are filled on a first come, first serve basis. Exhibiting artists must create their own work.
For more info or to reserve a space, email David at the following: winderbinder @ comcast . net Note: To speed the process, when "applying" for space we need the following: a brief bio, a couple of photos of your work, a general idea of the price range of your work and a booth photo (or at least a description of how your booth will be set up).
While this is a relatively relaxed setting, we still want to keep a level of professionalism in the look and feel of the market and it exhibitors.
A tent is not required, but is strongly suggested.
The Basics: The lot holds eighteen (18) 10'x10' spaces. Single booth rate is $25 + 10% of sales (with a cap of $50) = $75 maximum. Both sharing is allowed. Each artist pays $12.50 + 10% of sales (with a cap of $50) = $62.50 (each) Set-up is from 9:00-10:30am, breakdown begins roughly 30 minutes before sunset. Cancellation Fee: More than 72 hours before the event, no charge. Less than 72 hours before the event, $40. No shows will be charged the maximum $75
Load In / Load Out Being that it is a small area, it is critical that the exhibitors work together when unloading and loading. We block off a couple of spaces on Frazier in front of the market for artists who have light weight set-ups to park and "walk in" their work. If you need to pull your vehicle in to the lot we ask that you completely unload your vehicle, remove it from the lot, and THEN set-up. The point being, you need to get your vehicle out of the lot as quickly as possible so others can do the same. Same thing goes for loading vehicles at the end of the market.
Parking on Frazier Avenue and River Street is PAY parking. If you would like to park for free, we have agreements to allow our exhibitors to park at Forrest Avenue United Methodist Church (on Forrest Ave) or at the NorthShore Fellowship (on Woodland Ave). Both of these churches are within 100 yards of the market. Please DO NOT PARK in any private lots of other businesses. Parking is very limited on the NorthShore and there is nothing that will irritate another merchant more than someone taking up one of their parking spots for an entire Saturday.
