Vendor Donation

We request vendors make a donation of 15% of total event sales to Vasa Park. Vendors must submit an initital deposit of $10 per 10x10 space in order to reserve their market space, nonrefundable after October 15. This amount should be deducted from your total doantion amount, at the end of the event. Approved vendors will receive an email with a link to submit their initital deposit. You are not officially approved until your deposit has been received. We believe this arrangement makes our event accessible to independent sellers while also supporting the park's ground maintenance efforts and ongoing community events.

Please keep a record of your total sales for the day. After the market closes at 5pm you may then provide your 15% via provided donation link, or cash. Remeber to deduct your initial deposit! A week before the event you will receive an email with the vendor map and specific donation instructions.
