Join the Broad Ripple Lights Up Festival as an artist, maker, or packaged specialty food vendor! We’re creating a small holiday market alongside the festival’s family activities and entertainment. The Lights Up Festival attracts 1,500+ attendees each year.
We’re looking for individual artists and makers selling original or locally made art, crafts, gifts, and seasonal goods, plus vendors offering baked goods and packaged specialty foods intended to take home or give as gifts. Products must be original work or goods made or produced by the vendor. Purchased merchandise resold without substantial creative alteration (“buy/sell” goods) is not permitted.
Each vendor must offer at least one item with a holiday or seasonal connection. This can be as simple as festive packaging, decoration, or a seasonal variation of a product you already sell. Your entire product line does not need to have a holiday theme.
