Call for Vendors

It's another Metro Market at Metro Space Gallery!

What we are looking for:
Talented folks who want to show it off for two days!
1st Friday, June 5th & Sunday, June 7th

This is a juried market, and a committee of folks will hand pick a great range of different wares to make sure there is a wide variety of nice things to see. This is a huge opportunity for you to get your goods in front of the masses. Last year they estimated over 7,500 people attended the "Broad Appetit" event and the weather wasn't even that great! If you call 2,500 people a pretty good turn out, Friday the 5th will not disappoint you either.

Where:

Metro Space Gallery
119 West Broad Street
Richmond, VA 23220
(804)643-7125

When:
1st Friday, June 5th, 2009 (6:00pm - 10:30pm) and Sunday, June 7th, 2009 (12:00pm-5:00pm) during the "Broad Appetit" when Broad Street will be closed to all street traffic - except our favorite kind - foot traffic!

Why:
The last couple of markets have been a great success! This Market helps to support the efforts of True Love Press in its journey to purchase silk screen equipment, lumber and storage components for Richmond's only community printmaking cooperative.

How:

1. DEADLINE for submissions: Monday May 27th. There is a flat fee of $50 for the weekend, whether you are here one day or both.

2. Please send a couple of images to : heykateguesswhat [!at] gmail.com
(if you cannot get us an image, you will not be considered)

3. Be sure to include the words: JUNE MARKET VENDOR in the subject line

4. We will send a list of accepted vendors out on Thursday May 30th, 2009 along with all the special directions with set up and break down times and such. We will be allowing early drop off during the week to make it especially easy on our selected vendors.
