The emerging artist section at Asheville Art in the Park is now open for registration. 

Asheville Art in the Park signup will be available to members on April 6 2021. A lot of spaces are already full with returning artists so be sure to get your booth spaces confirmed before they fill up. The Appalachian Craft Market welcomes Asheville Art in the Park members to sign up for it's regular Saturday Market in downtown Asheville, NC.  If you are interested in becoming a vendor at the new market but are not already an Asheville Art in the Park member, please feel free to apply at any time.  There is a $26 Jury fee and you must submit 4 images of your work and one image of your booth display for consideration.

If you have a booth credit from 2020 you will be signed up for 2021 dates automatically.  If you want to vend on different dates in 2021, please contact Andrew to have your booth dates moved to be sure you can get into the shows you want.  Regular signup will begin for members once the event restrictions are lifted. Artists new to the show can apply for membership at any time for a one time fee of $26 with requirements listed on the application page. 

Asheville Art in the Park will continue it's historic vending dates of 3 Saturdays in June and 3 Saturdays in October in 2021 after a year of government mandated closure.  Added spring market space will be available on a regular Saturday schedule with signup becoming available in the new year once pandemic numbers subside. Stay safe.

Regular booth rates for artists at the market will be extended for an additional 2 weeks to allow vendors to catch up on a sluggish art cricut start this year.  Though we have seen strong tourism here in Asheville this year, other early regional shows have seen slower then normal sales.  For this reason, the regular booth fee signup time will be extended until there are less then 5 booth spaces remaining on a given vending date or at least 2 more weeks. 

Start your planning engines.  Asheville Art in the Park's 2019 schedule of show dates have been approved.  Booth spaces become available for members on November 1st.  Are you a member yet? Do you make your artwork by hand? We are always looking for quality hand made vendors.  If you have images of your work and images of your booth display, apply today. 

The wait list just started so if you are hoping to vend in Junes shows now is the time to signup for the few remaining wait list spaces. Historically more than a handful of spaces will become available in the next few weeks and first on the wait list is first into the show.  The booth fee is refunded if you don't get a spot so there is no risk.  Summer art shows are almost here!
