A few notes for interested artists

We are fortunate to have the best crop of artists, bakers and makers in Minnesota (we might be biased—nope, they’re awesome!)
and we would love to see if you have something we might be interested in.

Please fill out the application (linked above) completely and then we will contact you if we are interested in hosting you at our upcoming boutiques.

PLEASE NOTE: OUR EVALUATION PERIOD FOR ARTISTS IS USUALLY
SEVERAL WEEKS/MONTHS BEFORE THE BOUTIQUE IS IN SESSION.

Please check our social media for details on when the boutique will reopen--and understand if your application has been submitted close to or during a boutique open period, artists have already been chosen and we will keep your application on file for future seasons. 

Of note!! We do NOT evaluate artists when a boutique is live—so if you are applying during or close to the opening of a current boutique period we will not contact you until it’s time to start a new pop-up season.

DETAILS!

• We get many applications every year for our Boutique, and in order to consider you for a spot, we need the application form to be filled out COMPLETELY. We also need to see examples of your work.

• The application is the sole way we evaluate artists. Please do not DM, Message, or email us with your information. You must fill out the application.

• PLEASE do not bring your art into the boutique during business hours and ask to be evaluated. During business time we want to concentrate on our customers and while we appreciate your enthusiasm and interest, we cannot look at products during this time. It will not help us in our consideration. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

• You will receive an indication that your application is complete when you finish the application form--and rest assured we will evaluate everyone that applies. We will not send out an email indicating we've received your application--but if we are interested in having further conversations with you about being a part of the boutique, we will be in touch!

• We cannot accept Facebook messages, emails, DMs, or other communications about applying to be an artist in the boutique. This is the only way we receive applications. 

• We also do not accept materials on consignment. If you are chosen to be an artist in the boutique, we will discuss boutique fees and splits at that time. 

• WE ARE CURRENTLY FULL AND NOT ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR:

  • SIGNS 

  • TOWELS

  • SOAP

• Other products that unfortunately don’t work in our Boutique: 

  • Fine art, Paintings, Drawings, Photography, Glass. We are sorry we can’t accept applications for these types of art. 

Please understand we receive many more applications than we have space for artists, and sometimes we have many artists with the same category of product who are all very talented. We appreciate all artists and their talents and even if there isn't a spot in the boutique we appreciate your craft! 

Thank you!
