Discover over 190 artists and non-profits at the 4th annual Bozeman Fall MADE fair at Brick Breeden Fieldhouse
The holiday shopping season kicks off early with a returning showcase that connects talented artists with the Gallatin Valley community. Shop and discover a curated collection of over 190 local and regional artists at the Bozeman Fall MADE fair when it returns to Brick Breeden Fieldhouse on Friday and Saturday, October 14th and 15th. Expect to see everything from affordable, functional works of art to fine heirloom pieces at the show. Make a day of it with friends and enjoy strolling the aisles in support of your local artists. Visit the event website for additional details and pre-shop all the participating artists.
Those interested in a head start on shopping can purchase a $10 Night VIP Pass, valid from 6–8pm on Friday, or a $5 Early Bird Pass valid from 9–10am on Saturday – an hour before the show opens to the public. Get a solid start shopping and check out the best selection. All proceeds from ticket sales benefit American Prairie, a local non-profit whose mission is to create the largest nature reserve in the contiguous United States, a refuge for people and wildlife preserved forever as part of America’s heritage. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door.
This year, wholesale buyers are invited from around the state to connect with all the unique and talented artisans. Over half of the curated collection of artists can do wholesale and offer their amazing products for retail spaces. Event promoters are encouraging buyers to discover new makers and fan favorites and tell their stories in their shops this holiday season. Buyers must preregister online to participate and attend the event on Friday from 6–8pm during VIP hours when the aisles aren’t as full, and they can have a proper meet and greet with the artists!
The MADE fair is a modern art & handcrafted market featuring local & regional artists and makers. Events offer a curated collection of skilled artisans and a handful of non-profits. The MADE fair’s mission is to increase awareness of handmade goods as an alternative to mass-produced items and to support local and regional small craft businesses by providing a place to sell their goods. The events provide opportunities to artists of all levels, from hobbyists to seasoned professionals. The MADE fairs are presented by handMADE Montana – recently named “Retailer of the Year” by the Made in Montana program.
