Shout Out for Market Participants



The members of the Flock & Gather are serious about handmade indie crafts. We are committed to presenting a diverse selection of finely crafted handmade items that represent what the community has to offer.


We encourage anyone who may be interested in participating in the 2011 markets to submit an application. Each applicant is reviewed for craftsmanship, creativity, originality, type of craft, and product fit. Please note that all work must be original and handmade by the artist.


Although we would love to invite all that apply to participate we are limited by the space available at the venue. If you are not chosen for the April market do not be discouraged or offended. If you have indicated on the vendor application your interest in the summer or winter markets you will still be considered for these events.
