2025 Market Application

Heart & Home Handmade Market brings the charm of a pop-up market to unique venues across Northeast Ohio, celebrating a vibrant community of local makers. Enjoy a day of relaxation and fun with live music, delicious bites from local food trucks, and a welcoming atmosphere. Best of all, parking and admission are always free!

Heart & Home Handmade Market takes place rain or shine. In the event of severe weather, we may delay opening or close early, with updates shared on our social media channels. Vendors are responsible for managing weather-related risks and should take necessary precautions to protect their setup and products from potential loss or damage.

At Heart & Home Handmade Market, we love your furry friends! However, pet policies vary by venue. To inquire about a specific location, please click the link at the top of this page to email us.

Interested in becoming a vendor at Heart & Home Handmade Market? Click "Apply to Be a Vendor" on our website and complete the application. As a juried event, we carefully select vendors to ensure a high-quality experience for both customers and participants. Vendors are chosen based on originality, product variety, quality, and display presentation.

Please allow up to two weeks for us to review your application. Once reviewed, we’ll notify you via email if you’ve been accepted. Spaces are filled on a first-come, first-served basis for accepted vendors, so be sure to submit your payment promptly to secure your spot. Your space is confirmed once payment is received.

We recommend applying when you’re ready to submit payment, as we cannot guarantee your space will be held beyond 14 days of acceptance. After this period, spaces may be offered to other applicants if a category becomes full. However, categories don’t always fill up within this timeframe. To secure your spot, it’s best to apply and submit payment as soon as possible.

No, we do not provide tents. Each vendor is responsible for bringing their own 10x10 tent (or two 10x10 tents if you purchase a 10x20 space), along with tables, table coverings, chairs, and any other equipment needed for their display. Vendors are also responsible for the setup and takedown of their spaces.

No, vendor spaces cannot be shared. However, you may request to be placed next to someone you know by noting it on your application. While we’ll do our best to accommodate, special requests cannot be guaranteed.

Once you’re accepted as a vendor and your vendor fee is paid, all payments are non-refundable. Date swaps within the same calendar year may be possible if space is available in your category, but please note that categories fill up quickly, and this option may not always be feasible. We appreciate your understanding as we uphold this policy. Thank you!

We’ll utilize social media, flyers, yard signs, banners, and local media to promote the event. Sharing the event on your own business platforms is a fantastic way to help us spread the word and boost visibility.

We want to be as transparent as possible with this common question, though it’s a challenging one to answer accurately. Several factors come into play, as each venue is unique, meaning the attendance can vary depending on which market you're referring to. Additionally, we consistently add new venues to our schedule each year, and there’s no way to predict turnout at these new locations.

Many of our markets have multiple entry points, and since admission is always free, it’s difficult for us to provide an exact headcount of attendees. Feel free to click the link at the top of this page to email us, and we’ll do our best to offer a detailed and honest response specific to the location you’re asking about.

It depends on the venue and the number of vendors we can accommodate in the space. We do have category limits to ensure a well-balanced selection of vendors.

As this is a juried market, you must complete an application and wait for an email from heartandhomemktplace@gmail.com to confirm your acceptance. Once you receive this email, it will provide instructions on how to securely submit payment for the markets you applied for. Please be cautious of scammers posing as event coordinators on social media, who may ask for payments or personal information. We will never contact you or request any personal details. The ONLY way to apply is through our website, and all communication will come from the email address listed above.
