Holiday Craft Show Vendors


Dear Crafters:

We are hosting the Brazos Valley Holiday Craft Show at the Post Oak Mall in College Station, Texas, November 19-20, 2011.  This is a home game weekend for the Texas A&M football team, so we will have lots of extra people in town.  The Holiday Craft Show will be utilizing many of the advertising avenues provided by the Mall along with our own efforts to promote the show.

If you are interested in participating, please review the following guidelines and submit an online application by November 1st.  We will be located in the aisles of Post Oak Mall in the Dillard's courtyard.    We are not providing pipe and drape backdrops as we felt an open layout would be more welcoming to shoppers and would increase the exposure of each booth.  You may use a canopy frame in the 10x10 booths.  For those wanting a double 8x12 spot, you may choose to have two booths side-by-side (8x24) or back-to-back (16x12).  Canopies would also be permitted in a 16x12 booth.

All work must be handmade by the vendor.  Limited resale items that complement the crafter's work (such as a soap dish sold with handmade soaps) can be approved on a case by case basis, see application for details.
