Apply to Sell at the Vineyard Artisans

The Vineyard Artisans has an open enrollment feature for all new artisans, meaning you can apply any time of the year. Returning artisans: please apply by the March 15th deadline.

We encourage you to apply to exhibit your one-of-a-kind and limited-edition work. Exhibitors who bring work that is not of the quality shown in the images shared, or work not accepted will be removed from the show. All work must be original and handmade by the artist, or with assistance under the artist’s direct supervision. Artist’s designs replicated by a 3rd party on mass-produced items are not acceptable; reproductions including giclée prints can only amount to 25% of your booth, must be clearly labeled and displayed in a secondary manner – in a bin not hung on the wall. In addition, the following items are not acceptable: objects made from commercially available kits, plans, or patterns; imports; factory-made or assembled items and prints that do not have an archival lifespan of at least 20 years.

Current Artisans: need to pay a show balance? Please use this payment form.

Jurying Process

The jury process is the basis for your acceptance and placement in the festivals. All work is judged on the basis of design, technical skill, originality, and creativity. The manager reserves the right to limit the amount of vendors per category to balance the shows. Artisan’s designs replicated by a 3rd party or mass produced items are not acceptable in any category. All art and crafts must be hand made, one by one.

    Images

    We are asking all artisans, including new and returning artisans, to submit images. These images may be used, with attribution to you, to promote you and the Vineyard Artisans throughout the season, on social media and on our website.

    Please share five images: four images representing your work, and one of your booth or studio. Describe your images, and then upload them below. In the descriptions of your work, include your materials and techniques, dimensions, price range, and whether it is one-of-a-kind, limited edition, or in multiples. Please describe your booth/studio as well.

    Please upload your 5 images here.

    In the file names for the images, please include your name and image number in the file names (rather than saving them as something like IMG-12345– or whatever name the image file is given by default), so we can easily identify that they belong to you. For example: Jane_Doe_1.jpg, Jane_Doe_2.jpg, etc.

    Please submit images in JPG or PNG format. Images should around 1200 pixels wide and 72 dpi.
