As an arts organization, you are not required to sell works.

This is a call for artist vendors, arts organizations, and creative businesses/entrepreneurs.

The Ontario Arts Council defines a professional artist or arts professional as someone who has developed skills through training or practice, is recognized by artists working in the same artistic tradition, has a history of public presentation or publication, seeks payment for their work and actively practices on one or more of these fields of practice.

A creative entrepreneur is an individual who uses their creative or artistic skills to start and manage their own business, often in industries such as advertising, marketing, design, music, arts, writing, and entertainment.

Please note, this is a call for artist vendors, arts organizations, and creative businesses. We will not be accepting beauty, bath, wellness products, or functional items using traditional methods and techniques.
