Questions
Who can apply?
Local and regional authors, illustrators, artists and makers. Books come first, but artists and makers are welcome too.
Why is there an application?
We want a good mix of genres and crafts so every table stands out and shoppers have a reason to browse the whole alley. Applying is free. You only pay once you're accepted.
What if I need to cancel?
Table fees aren't refundable. If you cancel at least 7 days before the event, we'll credit your fee to a future month.
Can two people share a table?
Yes! Splitting a space is a great way to try your first event. One fee per space. Just list both names on your application.
Does the mall take a cut of my sales?
No. What you sell is yours to keep.
