The Handcrafted Artisanal Marketplace (H.A.M.) is a bespoke gift shop on 68 Airport Rd in Fitchburg, MA that sells locally-made products from the New England area.
Vendors joining this growing community of artisans have access to low-cost rental and consignment space, workshop space, and marketing opportunities. We are currently looking for a variety of locally-sourced ready-made foods, candles, unique gifts, and children's items. At this time we are currently full and unable to accept vendors looking to sell the following items: earrings, self-care products, crochet, and fine art.
Rentals: Booth space is priced by shelf, based on the size, allowing you to select the number of shelves you need. We have a few options for you to choose from:
- Wooden Cube Shelving Unit, 15” L x 1 ft D: $10 per cube. This is part of a bookshelf standing 6 cubes high. Bottom shelves are discounted to $5 per cube.
- Metal Shelving Units, 2 ft L x 1 ft D: $20 per shelf; there are 3-5 shelves per unit. Bottom shelves are discounted to $15 per shelf.
- Large Shelf, 2.5 ft L x 1 ft D: $30 per shelf. If you are okay with taking a bottom shelf, this price decreases to $25 per shelf.
- Gondola, 2 ft L x 4.5 ft H: $60 per side. We may do half sides for $30 depending on availability.
- Card Racks/Sticker Racks: $5 per row

Consignment: Consignment is split 60/40 in the artist favor. Vendors will be assigned a spot in the store upon acceptance and will fill the space accordingly.
