  • Arts & Crafts Vendors

Arts and crafts (aka handicrafts) comprise a whole host of items that have been skillfully made, completely by hand or using only simple hand-powered tools. The individual artisanship of the items is a paramount criterion, Items made by mass production or large-scale machines are not handicrafts.
    • Unacceptable are mass-manufactured items, kits, imports, mass-manufactured reproductions of your own work, foods, or recorded media of any kind. If you are a designer who has objects manufactured, or otherwise do not meet the guidelines above, please apply as a commercial vendor.
