Vendor Information:
To become a artisan/vendor at the Cultural Survival Bazaars please read the vendor guidelines, read and sign the fair trade pledge if our fair trade principles apply to your business practices. We will also need all vendors fill out our New Vendor Application Fair Trade Questions.doc for our records which can be downloaded at the bottom of this page.
We recently switched to using constant contact as a way for artisans and vendors to register/apply for our events. You will find a list of upcoming events and a link to each application/registration page for each event below. Once you have completed the registration, it will be reviewed by our Vetting Committee. You will be contacted after the deadline and notified if your application was accepted or denied. Once your application has been accepted you will need to send us JUST ONE $250 security deposit (which is returned to you when you show up for the event). The registration is considered NOT complete until we receive the security deposit.
