The Handmade Mafia is a monthly market and collective of local designers and handmade makers galore! To be part of the family one must either design or make their items themselves. You will
need to fill out this form in order to be a part of the family, Cut and
paste: Here are some essential facts about the Handmade Mafia Monthly Market to get you started. We have 3 table sizes/ spaces: 4 foot - $45, 6 foot -$55, 8 foot for $65. Cash and cheques are collected at the day of the event. The application form needs to be completed with your photos sent or directed to your website otherwise it will be considered incomplete. In order to take part in a particular market you will need to select all months you are interested in - as we may not always send a call to artists each month. By selecting a month this does NOT mean you are automatically accepted to the market. Please do not assume you should then just show up for it. You will need to watch your emails for a second email closer to the market date asking if you are still interested. If you are or are not interested at that point please send us a quick response either way. If we do not hear a YES response from you we will assume you are no longer interested in attending. You will know if you are accepted to the market via email approximately one week before. This email will clearly state that you have been accepted and will contain further information with set up times and links to events to send to your family. We will be doing a regular rotation of vendors. This means you may not be accepted for every market. We do this in order to give everyone a chance to take part in the market. We will not be accepting deposits for shows but will be happy to take your requests into consideration if there are shows you would particularly like to attend. Thank you again for your interest in the Handmade Mafia and remember: "Our guns contain glue, we make crafts not war, and we always know a "good thing" when we see it" |
