Vendor Reference Guide
____________________________________________________________
Welcome to the Kitsap Handmade Saturday Market page, inspired by our wonderful Kitsap Artisan Market Facebook group! Our vision is to bring together the artists, crafters, creators and handmakers of Kitsap County in an affordable, uplifting and community centric market to showcase the
amazing talents surrounding us, as well as to provide a wonderful environment for shoppers to buy and support locally. When and Where:
The Kitsap Handmade Saturday Market will be held the second Saturday of the month, rain or shine, beginning in May and ending in September. We have one Holiday Market on a designated Saturday in November. We are located at Crossroads Neighborhood Church at 7555 Old Military Rd NE, Bremerton, WA 98311, at the corner of Fairgrounds Rd. For the summer markets, the vendors are situated in the parking lot, while the holiday market is set inside the church. Summer series vendor setup begins at 7:30am, the market will open from 10am to 4pm and vendors will breakdown their areas completely from 4pm-5pm. Please note that there are no electrical hookups. Vendors and Products:
Vendors must be selling handmade items or goods. No multi-level marketing products or booths such as Scenty, DoTerra, Young Living, Beach Body, Usborne, etc. All vendors, products and booths MUST be family friendly and respectful. Vendors are required to have representation within their market space at all times. No market space shall be left unattended under any circumstances. If you find you are unable to attend after having been selected, please advise the Market coordinators as soon as possible prior to the event to allow for an alternate to take the space. Any no-shows without advance notice will subject the vendor to possible exclusion from any future events at the Market coordinators’ discretion. Liability: Under no circumstances will Crossroads Neighborhood Church nor the coordinators of the Kitsap Handmade Saturday Market be held liable for any harm, theft, or destruction of any persons or personal items brought onto the church property. You are responsible for keeping your market space free of any hazards. It is recommended that vendors obtain their own insurance to protect their property if they so choose. Should the market staff feel the need to ask you to leave the premises, you must immediately begin your breakdown and remove yourself from the property no more than one hour later.
