Interested in being part of the Rook Room’s Mini Market series featuring small, local vendors? Get more information below and see if you’d be a great fit to apply!
We’re looking to partner with small, local businesses providing unique, quality purchasing options to the community.
If you’re a maker, creator, designer, artist, or any other type of creative, this might be a great fit! Applications are open to small businesses or creative ventures that are selling unique goods and are rooted in our community.
Additionally, we are looking for vendors who are LGBTQ+ affirming, who respect our mission, and who support our core values.
We’re NOT looking for large companies, businesses already doing millions in sales, multi-level marketing/direct marketing representatives, or sellers of templated/intellectual property items.
If selected as a vendor, we ask that you reserve a date through our Mini Market reservation system.
Mini Markets generally take place on Saturdays from 8 AM until 1 PM, with some exceptions for specific shopping-related events and needs.
We ask that interested vendors be able to commit to staffing a pop-up booth for the entire five-hour duration.
The Rook Room will provide a 12′ x 4′ space within our cafe area, as well as three 32″x32″ tables for setup and display. Vendors are welcome and encouraged to bring any additional shelves, signs, decor, and more as long as it fits within the specified area.
The Rook Room will market and advertise the event as part of our Mini Market event series and will, if desired, collaborate with tags and mentions on social posts. We greatly encourage vendor collaborators to promote to their audiences as well!
