FAQs
How can I be a vendor for the next Pop-Up?
We post applications for our Pop-Ups on our Instagram with a link in bio to this very website!
Are late submissions or payments accepted?
Both submissions and payments are not accepted past the due dates. Payments are processed once applications have been approved.
Are vendor fees refundable?
As clearly stated in all of our applications, unfortunately vendor fees are non-refundable under any and all circumstances. Need to withdraw your application before submissions are processed? No worries - just send us a message!
When is the next Pop-Up?
We are so excited to be collaborating with the Buffalo AKG Art Museum to host our next market on Saturday October 5th, 2024 from 10am - 4pm.
I have been a vendor at past AVA events! Does that mean I have a guaranteed spot at the next pop-up?
With so many talented vendors in WNY, it’s hard to have the space for everyone. For each event, we like to create a mix of customer-favorites as well as less established newcomers. We would love to have everyone join if we could, but we cannot.
Can AVA Collective be a vendor at my event?
We would love to participate in your next event as independent vendors! The three of us each have our own creations we vend at markets frequently. See the “Meet AVA” tab for more information.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for artisans and vendors who are passionate about their craft and provide a high quality, uniquely curated experience.
We are NOT looking for goods with the illegal usage of licensed logos and branding - such as the Buffalo Bills/Sabres, Disney, Starbucks, etc. Any applicant selling such product will not be accepted.
Do I need a EIN number or temporary vending license in order to participate?
All vendors are required to sell their goods with a valid tax ID number, and obtain a temporary vending license for each event.
