This year we will be prioritizing new applicants in order to give more youth the opportunity to participate. If you have participated in Mini Mod Shop twice, you are still welcome to apply but will be given a lower priority if we have more applicants than spots.
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.
