Unless we have specified that a tent, table, or chairs are incuded, the booth simply provides you with the square footage space for you to do your set-up.

Will I have a wall behind me?

We cannot guarantee that you will have wall behind you. Think of our pop-ups as farmers market open air events. You are welcome to bring stables and anything that can stand alone for your display as long as it’s within a reasonable parameter. Check out our Pinterest boards for booth & vendor inspiration!

Will I have access to outlets?

We DO have access to outlets in the outdoor patio, as well as in the Marketplace Studio. Just let us know ahead of time so we will curate with these details in mind. You will need to provide your own extension cords and will also need to make sure there all cords are secure and not a tripping hazard. Outlets are limited throughout The Cloisters.

Can I share a booth?

We are only selecting vendors that are ready to showcase their best on their own.

How many vendors can you accept?

We have 7 spots for exclusive indoor vendors and can have 45+ outdoor vendors curated throughout the premices.

You will receive an e-mail response within one week of confirming your acceptance as a vendor with a link to pay and reserve your booth. To reserve your booth your booth fee must be paid within 3 days of receiving your email confirmation.

Where is the space?

We will curate vendors throughout The Patio at Elm Creek and overflow to The Cloisters courtyard connected to Mezamiz Coffee Shop and the Makers + Creators Marketplace located at 3909 S. 7th. Indoor vendors will be curated within the studio space.

How will I know when and where to set up the day of the event?

All vendors will receive email communication leading up to the event. We will provide you with your booth number when you arrive. Our indoor vendors will be curated with a sign at their designated spot. Outdoor vendors will arrive and check-in at the front counter. From there, we will direct you on where to go.

All booth fees for this pop-event are non-refundable. We encourage you to find a replacing vendor who would like to take your place. They will need to complete their vendor submission form as well. You’ll need to let us know who you plan on taking your place, and they will need to pay you for your refund.

What are we looking for in a vendor?
