Fee Deadlines

The online application form will become available June 1, 2023.
The Alameda Holiday Boutique is a juried event for handmade crafts and fine artists.
All first time vendors are required to provide at least 5 digital photographs of their products for evaluation by the core coordinator team. The uploaded photos are subjected to a "Google Lens" search to ensure that the items submitted are not available at mass retailers (e.g. Amazon) or are otherwise identical to items found on Etsy, Instagram, Facebook, or other websites. Once approved, vendors must adhere to the products described in the application and presented in the digital images. Returning vendors receive an invitation with a slightly earlier deadline to respond. This allows us to attempt to provide the same table/space location they occupied in the previous year. Returning vendors can request a different location and these requests will be granted if we have the opportunity to do so. Returning vendors who change their "product line" or want to add additional products that they have not sold in the past must notify the coordinators AND provide at least 5 digital images of the products they wish to sell at the Alameda Holiday Boutique. ABOVE ALL, the Alameda Holiday Boutique is exclusively for hand made items that are produced by the vendor themselves. Resale (items purchased from suppliers/manufacturers for the purpose of selling at the holiday boutique) are not permitted. AHB coordinators will be strolling through the event facility during setup with lists and photos submitted by the vendor. Items displayed for sale that were NOT approved by the coordinators or substituted after registration is approved will not be permitted to stay and will not be invited back the next year.
