What are the requirements to be eligible as a Vendor?
We are looking for vendors with stationery products in categories such as greeting cards, notebooks, journals, stickers, washi tape, writing tools, etc. We prioritize artists that focuses on their own original designs while keeping fan art to a minimum (All copyright and trademark laws apply. AI-generated art, direct copies and/or tracings of someone else’s artwork is strictly prohibited). Only authorized retailers are permitted to sell licensed merchandise. Re-sellers are not accepted. This is an all-ages, family-friendly event. Exhibitors with explicit adult images/products will not be considered for the show.
The main criteria that we look for are vendors that are engaging on social media to help with cross-promotion, professionalism in branding/marketing, small businesses that are actively involved in their community, and most importantly, artists with original designs and unique products (at least 10 different styles not including colourways).
To be eligible as a vendor, these are the MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS:
* All designs must be your original artwork and cannot infringe on anyone else’s copyright and/or trademarks (AI-generated art is strictly prohibited)
* 75% of what you sell at the show must be stationery-related products
* You must have a minimum of 10 different designs/products for sale at the time of completing this application
* Each vendor AND their helper must be 18 years of age on the day of the event.
This is a juried event, and table sharing is NOT allowed. Each vendor must apply as an individual (if you and your friend are both accepted, you may request to be placed together after the lineup is finalized).
