Heritage market
Hey friends! We are gearing up for a Spring Heritage Market and here are some key things you need to know!
Who?
Participation as a vendor/seller is open to current & former Heritage Staff, Stirring staff, and close friends of Heritage.
What?
This is much like a closet sale, but in addition to clothing & accessories, you are welcome to bring home goods, small furniture(as space permits), and handcrafted items.
When?
May 2nd & 3rd during business hours. Fri: 7AM-3PM & Sat: 8AM-3PM
Where?
The Patio at our Churn Creek Location
How to participate!
The Market is organized by types of items- not by sellers collections, as this provides the best shopping experience! This means your items will be intermingled with others items. As we do not have hangers to provide to you, if you would like to keep your hangers - please put something unique on them to identify them as yours. This could be a colored tape, with your initials written on them.
We have a limited amount of clothing racks and tables that we are able to provide. If you have a clothing rack, please bring it! If the amount of clothing you are bringing exceeds half a rack, we need you to contribute a rack. Additionally, if you plan to bring many items that require being displayed on a table top[jeans, shoes, home decor, books, etc] we ask that you try to source a table of some kind to contribute. The easier it is for guests to browse, the more likely they will find the things they would like to purchase…aka, more money made!
Tagging is SO important. If you want to get paid, you must tag your clothing properly. Similar to the hangers - your tags need to be unique to you and fixed to the clothing. This can be done with a price tagging gun or something like safety pins. When it comes to clothing and fabric, stickers can fall off. If stickers fall off - especially when guests want to go try an item on, we can’t know who's it is. Additionally, tags should not be attached to the hanger, because once again, if a guest removes the item from the hanger - we can not know the price & seller.
You must bring in your items on Thursday evening, May 1st, starting at 4 PM, and pickup begins at 3 PM on Saturday, May 3rd. Please expect that picking up your items may take 30-45 minutes, as they will be intermixed with the Market's items. For Thursday setup, we do not expect you to stay for the entire duration, but we kindly ask that you dedicate around 20 minutes of your time to help get your things situated. All items must be removed by 5 PM on Saturday. If you are unable to make this time, please let us know!
Alyssa and Hannah are planning to be at the Market as hosts for the duration of the event—to help guests, manage money, and keep things running smoothly. This is not a paid shift and does require a time commitment. Therefore, if you plan to participate, there will be a $20 fee to compensate for their time or this fee can be waived by committing to a 3-hour timeslot.
As we need to set up the Market on the patio each morning and move it back inside at the end of the day, assistance in making this happen is greatly appreciated. In the form below, we've indicated the time slots that need to be covered, and some of them will require multiple extra hands. When filling out the form, please check any and all time slots you can commit to, and in the message section, indicate how many you are willing to commit to. We will get back to you regarding which slots you have been assigned!
