Whidbey Art Market
POTTERY MARKET
APPLICATION INFORMATION
This event is open to Clay Artists from Washington State, with preference given to Whidbey Island Artists. All items must be handmade by the Artist.
Applications will be reviewed as they are received. There is no fee to apply. Registration fees will be due immediately upon receipt of your acceptance email. This page will be updated when registration is full.
This is an exciting event incorporating a 2 day Pottery Market at Freeland Hall with a Whidbey Pottery Salon event on Sunday. The Pottery Market will utilize the full hall on Saturday. On Sunday, we will reduce to 2/3 of the hall space and share the other third of the hall with Whidbey Pottery Salon.
We encourage you to embrace a creative and flexible spirit as we condense our displays for Sunday to accommodate this shared event.
