APPLICATION DETAILS
What We’re Looking For
Black Makers Market is a juried market experience designed to uplift Black-owned businesses across creative, handmade, food, and lifestyle categories.
We prioritize:
Handmade & handcrafted goods
Original art, design, and creative services
Packaged food & beverage brands (properly permitted)
Thoughtfully produced retail, wellness, and lifestyle brands
Our goal is to curate markets that feel intentional, balanced, and supportive—both for vendors and for the community we serve.
Jury Process & What to Expect
Submitting this form does not guarantee acceptance. Due to the high volume of applications, we are unable to provide individual feedback on application decisions.
You can expect:
A confirmation that your application was received
An email notification once jury review is complete for the event(s) you selected
If accepted, a follow-up email with a payment link and next steps.
Payment & Fees
Our standard vendor fee is typically $150, though fees may vary depending on:
Event size and duration
Location and production costs
Indoor vs outdoor setup
If selected, vendors will have 72 hours to submit payment once invoiced. Unpaid booths after the payment window will be released to the waitlist.
Market Grant (Equity-Centered)
We believe access matters. If you are a first-time vendor and cost is a barrier, you may apply for the Black Makers Market Vendor Grant to be considered for a sponsored booth. Grant applications are reviewed separately and do not impact jury decisions.
