To celebrate the variety and talent of independent business in Nottingham and beyond we are introducing, Summer Markets at Nottingham Contemporary. These markets will be held in our large ground floor area, The Space, and will be a scaled back version of our popular annual Christmas Craft Fair.

The last year has been tough and we have missed hosting brilliant small business at our popular Fairs. The markets will be relaxed and reflective of the current conditions, with a reduced number of stalls and socially distanced. We aim for these markets to be a great way to reconnect with audiences, in person in a safe and friendly environment.

Application requirements:

We are looking for independent designers, makers and small businesses across a broad selection of disciplines with a focus on quality and original design.

Included in the cost are:

Tresle table approx 182x68 cm and 2 chairs

Marketing via social media to our reach of over 120k followers

Paid social media advertising

Mail outs to our wide audience and details across our website

To Apply:

To apply please fill out the application form with five images of your work including one image of a previous stall and send this to craft@nottinghamcontemporary.org by Sun 4 Jul 2021.

Stallholders may apply for multiple dates and whole weekends.

Applications only accepted via email to craft@nottinghamcontemporary.org

All applicants will be informed of the outcome of their application by 6pm on Wed 7 Jul.

All applications will receive an email confirmation that their application has been received.

Applications will be carefully selected on the quality of their submission by a selected team. We aim to bring a variety of specialisms, price points and makers to our audiences. Due to the amount of applications we receive we are unable to accept all applications and give direct feedback to each individual entry. We do hold a reserve list if spaces do become available.

Any questions please email craft@nottinghamcontemporary.org
