Application Procedure
Do not send in a booth fee with your application; wait until your application has been accepted and you receive confirmation of acceptance with your agreement and booth invoice. Booth fees will be due no later than May 2nd, if accepted.
Cancellations: 75% of your booth fee will be refunded if you cancel before May 9th.
Eligibility
We look forward to representing the spectrum of the creative work done by artists in the Bay Area. We anticipate having more applications for booths and tables than there are available spaces. Therefore, please review the Eligibility section and fill out your applications and return to us as soon as possible.
Artisan Booths & Tables
Anyone is eligible to apply who creates original, handmade work in any art or craft media. In the spirit of this event, it is suggested that the artists who created the work be present. It is acceptable to have people helping you produce and represent your work. Manufacturers, dealers and agents are ineligible.
If you are applying online, please complete the online application form at: www.missionbazaar.com
Photos can get lost or damaged in the mail – please send duplicates rather than originals. If you would like to share a booth space with someone you know, you must each apply separately and each be accepted. Please indicate on your application that you intend to share, and with whom.
Artisans working together on the same body of work should submit one application.
You will be notified by April 25th if your organization has been selected to have a booth at the event.
Non-Profit Organizations
Any registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization is eligible to apply for a Non-Profit Table space. The primary purpose of the non-profit tables is to share information about your organization and mission. Small items that represent your organization may be sold at your table (stickers, buttons, small books, stamps, etc.). Larger, more expensive arts and crafts may not be sold at a non-profit table, even if sale of items is to benefit your organization. Mission Bazaar reserves the sole right to determine if your for-sale items are appropriate for a Non-Profit Table or if you need to register for an artisan booth or table.
Selection Process
Artisan Booths & Tables
Since anticipate more applications than available booths and tables, priority will be given to first-come, first-serve. However, our goal is to reflect the creative spectrum of products and accessories and our final choices will be based on reflecting that spectrum. All decisions are final.
Community Outreach
An important goal of the Mission Bazaar is to support the greater Mission community. We’ll give first priority to non-profits that are based in and serve the Mission. Other organizations are welcome to apply and will be selected based on their mission statements and the extent to which they support the creative community.
You will be notified by April 25 if your organization has been selected to have a table at the event.
