Art Market Vlog ✿ Selling at The Chicago Artisan Market | Bug Ceramics

Last weekend I travelled to Chicago to sell at a local Artisan market. I hope you enjoy this vlog, following my experience as a small business owner, artist, and potter. Overall I enjoyed my experience and Im so grateful for the people I met. Have you been a vendor at an artists market like this one?

Hey! So glad your video came up for me as I’m trying to organize my thoughts for the upcoming holiday market in New York. The fee is definitely high even for a big city.. I usually pay $350 for a full weekend, which always ends up being profitable (sometimes more sometimes less but still). Love your vibe and insights and will definitely follow!

That is a WILD fee for a paid market! I help organize a zine fest, and our fees are $20/day for a half table at a free-to-attend fest. We prioritize low tabling fees and offer scholarships, but that's because we do it for the community and not for profit. TBH the market sounds very profit-oriented.

Yes it definitely is.

Hello, I am a vendor that just got approved for the Fall Chicago market. Do you think it’s worth it? The fee is pretty steep for me….
EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw your thoughts near the end. Thank you! ❤

Hope this video helped you make a decision. I don’t know what the fall market is like or if the crowd is different.
