Vendor Application

Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.
Name


This is how you would like to be referred to in marketing and promotion for the event.


Please provide a link to a social media profile such as Facebook, Instagram, website, so we can view examples of your work. If you don't have any social media profiles, please send us an email with 3-4 samples of your work.
What 3rd Friday date(s) would you like to apply for?


You may select multiple months. If you do select multiple events, it is expected that you intend to be a vendor at each of those events.

In 2024 each 3rd Friday will celebrate a different cultural theme. Your work does NOT need to represent the theme (although that would be dope). Of course, we would like to give preference to those artists whose work does represent the theme of each event.

***3rd Friday in October IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH OUR LARGE OUTDOOR EVENT, MONSTER BASH. Monster Bash will take place on October 26th alongside the Irvington Halloween Festival. We will take applications for that event in August.***
