Hand Makers Market

About Hand Maker's Market:

Welcome to the debut of Total Recovery’s Hand Maker's Market, a celebration of creativity, craftsmanship, and community! Join us on July 12, 2024, for an evening filled with unique handmade goods, crafts, and creations from local and independent handcrafters.

Why Vendor with Us?

You don't need a reason to join us in showcasing all your hard work and incredible creations, but here are a few compelling ones, nonetheless.

• Local Focus: Embrace the spirit of community by participating in a locally driven event that celebrates the talent and creativity of artisans in our area.
  
  
• Supporting Small Business: By participating in our market, you're not just selling products – you're supporting the backbone of our economy, small businesses, and artisans who pour their passion into their craft.
  
  
• Non-Competitive Atmosphere: Enjoy a welcoming and supportive environment where collaboration is encouraged, and the focus is on celebrating each vendor's unique offerings rather than competing against one another. Spaces will be limited to specific crafts, and there will be no more than two (2) of the same kind. For example, you won’t find more than two (2) vendors at our market selling soap, limiting competition between vendors while also opening up spaces for other sellers.
  
  
• Limited Vendors: With a limited number of vendor spots available, you will have the opportunity to stand out and shine in the spotlight among other local vendors and our committed guests without feeling lost or tucked away in a crowded marketplace.
