ASI Makers Market Vendor Application

Artists

The ASI Makers Market provides an opportunity for artists to showcase and sell their crafts to Cal Poly students and community members inside the Craft Center.

Our Mission

The mission of the ASI Makers Market is to promote the Craft Center and to provide a location for talented artists to sell their work.

 

Crafts

We only showcase crafts that are made by the artists themselves. If you are unsure about the eligibility of your crafts, it is your responsibility to contact the Craft Center at (805) 756-1266 or asicraftcenter@calpoly.edu. Food and drinks are not considered craft items and therefore may not be sold.

 

Vendors

All vendors will be required to pay the Craft Center a commission on sales. The required commission is 15 percent for student vendors and 25 percent for non-student vendors. The Craft Center will collect sales on each day. Checks will be mailed to the address listed on the vendor’s W9 form.

 

Security

Vendors are responsible for monitoring booths during sale hours. The Craft Center is not responsible for lost or stolen merchandise during the sale.

 

Application and W9

All vendors must complete an application and email their completed (W-9) taxpayer identification form to asicraftcenter@calpoly.edu.

By submitting your paperwork, you are acknowledging that you have read the information and will adhere to all policies and guidelines herein.
