Thank You!

Thanks to the generosity of the Urban Harvest patrons, we raised over $220 for “United We Sand” flood relief efforts during our August 18 ice cream social.  A special thanks to the Bis-Man Bombshellz for handing out the ice cream, and to URL Radio for helping to distribute the donations.

Urban Harvest offers scholarship to first time arts and crafts vendors

Artists and crafters interested in testing the waters of vending to the public can get their feet wet this summer at Urban Harvest.

Thanks to support from Basin Electric Power Cooperative, Urban Harvest is offering a scholarship program for new vendors this year. In the booth provided by Basin Electric Power Cooperative, a different vendor each week will have the chance to sell home-crafted products without paying Urban Harvest membership fees. We especially encourage teenage artists and other amateur crafters who have never sold their products before to apply for these positions.

Interested applicants should fill out the regular vendor applications, and submit an application with a cover letter and three photographs of their products in lieu of a membership fee. Scholarship recipients also do not need to provide their own insurance; Urban Harvest will insure the scholarship booth. We will also have a canopy set up and offer assistance to vendors in setting up and displaying their products. Applicants should indicate which days they are available to vend.

The regular fee for vending at Urban Harvest is $100 for all six markets or $30 for a single market. The deadline for both regular vendor applications and scholarship applications is July 1. Paid applicants must provide their own insurance coverage.

Urban Harvest is an open-air market that occurs six consecutive Thursdays from July 14 through August 18. A celebration of all things local, arts and crafts booths dot the 1tree-lined streets on the corner of 4th Street and Broadway in downtown Bismarck each market day. Shoppers will also find farmers market produce and local food vendors selling from their booths. Live musical acts and entertainment performs on the main stage throughout the day.
For more information,  contact Liz – 516-2456 or director@bismarckurbanharvest.org .
