Hello! If you’re reading this blog, I'm trying to put you on to some of my vending connections!
Just a little background on my vending journey. I started vending January 2019. When I started my art business in November 2018, I wanted to find a way to sell my art outside of social media and a website. At first, I really had a hard time finding "art" events. I was looking for art shows that I could participate in and sell my art.
I started researching on Eventbrite. I typed in "vendor opportunity, vendor wanted, artist needed" and a few events popped up. I decided to hop back on Facebook, I had found about five vendor groups, that catered to my area. Lastly, I started to get a lot of support through my connections on Instagram. People tagged me to events or saw my work.
So far, I've vended at fifteen events, marketplaces, art shows and festivals in 2019. Each has taught me a lot about myself and my business. I'll definitely blog about that in the near future.
