MINI MOD SHOP
Mistlin Gallery is hosting Mini Mod Shop aimed at crafty youth age 12-17.

Mini Mod Shop will be located at Mistlin Gallery on J Street along side the regular Mod Shop event. All information below also applies to Mini Mod Shop, but we are offering a reduced booth fee of $20. Teen booths are 5' long and 4' deep. Please submit an application using the link above during the regular application period.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Mod Shop is looking for DIY crafters with original items to sell. Cottage food vendors and curated vintage collections are also welcome. Items should be made by hand and not manufactured elsewhere. Products should be unique and distinct from other vendors. Our space is limited and we get many more applications than we can accept. We do sell out each year and approve vendors who fit the Mod Shop vision and contribute to an interesting and diverse shopping experience.
