2015 Bayou Boogaloo Art Market Vendor Application
The MotherShip Foundation is happy to announce that we are now accepting art market vendor applications for the Tenth consecutive Mid-City Bayou Boogaloo Festival. This years festival will be held Friday May 15th - Sunday May 17th, 2015...Situated on the banks of Bayou St. John, (where Moss St intersects Orleans Ave), the Boogaloo Art Market has enjoyed crowds of up to 35,000 people who come out to this free festival. Attracting all demographics, this 3 day festival is  a favorite amongst local and regional artisans and spectators, alike.  Spaces are limited; once they sell out, we will not make additional space so, apply early!

We are now accepting applications for all arts and crafts media and disciplines which feature unique and original handmade works.  All work in this category must be 100% original and produced by the exhibiting artist. Offset reproductions of applicant’s original art may be sold, but should represent a very small percentage of the total work on display. No imported goods and or resale items will be accepted.

This is a juried show and as such, previous participation in this festival does not guarantee acceptance.

4 Digital images are required as part of your application. Image quality is essential and can make a difference in your acceptance, as the jury has only your digital images with which to judge your work. The best image is one that is full framed with the artist's single work, is well lit and is representative of the body of work intended for exhibition. Your booth image should show your booth as it is set up for exhibition at an outdoor show.

Images submitted this year will again be added to a google slideshow to facilitate in the jury process. For those accepted these same images will be placed in a slideshow to post on the website and social media to create some excitement among the general public about art to be featured at the festival.

There is a $20 Non-refundable application fee (payable by credit card) due along with your online application no later than January 23rd, 2015.  

Those accepted into the Arts Market will receive notification of acceptance along with a contract which will detail all the information needed on how to confirm your participation. The booth fees for those accepted will be three hundred dollars ($300) to be paid and sent in along with the contract by Monday February 23rd, 2015.  Booth sharing is allowed and all artists must be listed on this application.
