Raíces y sueños call for vendors

Santa Barbara Public Library invites local Hispanic and Hispanic background community member artists who would like to reserve a vendor booth at the Michael Towbes Library Plaza on November 9, 2024. This is a wonderful opportunity to sell and showcase your work, support holiday gift-giving, and share your unique talents with the community.

As part of our celebration for Hispanic Heritage Month and the inauguration of the Michael Towbes Library Plaza, we have created the Mercado Raíces y Sueños. Enjoy a day on the library plaza while selling your original artwork, building relationships with patrons and fellow artists, and sharing your art with hundreds of people.

Important Information:

You must be a resident of Santa Barbara County.
All work must be handmade by the applicant.
All vendors need to obtain a seller’s permit from the City of Santa Barbara.

The Process:

You must be the person who showcases handcrafted originals from Santa Barbara artisans. Once an artist has been approved, we will communicate with you regarding the next steps.

Don't Wait!

The Mercado Raíces y Sueños has limited space, so don’t miss out on this opportunity to display and sell your art to people from all over the world.

If you are interested and meet all the requirements, don’t wait any longer, register at the following link.
