Basin Arts Art Bazaar 2017

Join us for Basin Arts Art Bazaar 2017
Saturday, November 25
9 – 5pm

Basin Arts is hosting an Art Bazaar as part of Downtown Lafayette’s Small Business Saturday events and celebration!

Local artists are invited to sell artwork and second-hand art supplies at discounted prices and local vendors and artisans are invited to pop-up and sell their wares.

This event will give local artists the opportunity to clear out their studios and find a loving home for pieces they do not intend to exhibit, while offering members of our community the ability to start or expand their art collections at affordable prices. Additionally, it will provide a platform for artists and local crafters, artisans and vendors to connect and offer an inexpensive way for small business owners to sell their goods.

REGISTRATION IS CURRENTLY OPEN FOR ARTISTS AND VENDORS LOOKING TO SET-UP SHOP.

DEADLINE 11/11/17

The Art Bazaar will be divided into two sections:

1) Artist Garage Sale, which will offer secondhand supplies and affordably priced works of art. Booth space will be available to rent for $15. The Artist Garage Sale area will be set-up in the Basin Arts parking lot (weather permitting). Artists are responsible for bringing in their own tables, chairs and items for display. Artists are responsible for handling their own money and pricing and selling their own goods. All supplies and art should be priced affordably.

Artists are invited to sell quality pieces which are not intended for gallery sale or exhibition, including: older or student work, studies, sketches, off-set prints, smaller works, slightly damaged pieces, or affordably-priced work. Second-hand art supplies include unused or lightly used items, such as: easels and taborets; unused or partially used paints, mediums, and inks; sculpting materials; drawing materials; unused canvasses and panels; fabric and notions; beads and beading supplies; sewing machines; knitting needles and yarn; frames and mat boards; books; and similar items. Vendors wishing to sell large items, such as studio furniture, should contact Basin Arts by email beforehand.

2) Creative Vendor Booth Space, to be rented by artists, artisans, and designers on an individual basis for the sale of original goods, art, clothing, and gifts will be available to rent for $35. These booths will be set-up indoors at Basin Arts and space assignments will be made on a “first-come, first served” basis. These booths are ideal for handmade jewelry, vintage clothing, homemade candles and bath products, more complete/current works of art, stationary, etc.
