In the spacious venue we will be hosting more than ONE HUNDRED vendors. Have you ever wanted to take part in one of our shows? Now's the time! With a venue this large we can accommodate the range of fabulous shops in Toronto. Plus, while applications will be juried to gather the best, this show is open to any handmade or vintage Etsy seller. Team membership is not required - but you do need an Etsy shop.

Each vendor will get their own 6 foot by 2.5 foot table and one chair for the affordable price of $50.
