Hello Fellow Artisans ...
I am new to PDX and I am wanting to sell some stuff at Last Thursday. Looking for info on how to get a spot. I read on their website that you go and talk to a business earlier in the day and then set up. I am wondering if most peeps already have their spots staked out or if in fact it is a first come first serve kind of deal. I know down on the boardwalk in Venice people could get pretty territorial and I don't want to upset the mix but I do want to share my creations with others. Any advice would be great and anyone who might be wiling to meet up and set up together that has experience down on Alberta and knows some good spots that would be awesome! I am selling some sexy funky clothes, colorful children's clothes and I will be enticing people with vegan chocolate coconut macaroons!
Thanks for your help!
See you down there!

Wed, May 28, 2008 - 9:12 AMHi Erin,
People on Alberta are pretty chill. Just go out and start talking to people and you will find that for the most part Portlanders are pretty friendly. i also used to vend in Venice and it's not so competitive here. People are pretty willing to talk to you and help you out. Some artists seem to be in the same spots but others move around. It all depends on your relationship with the business owners. It sounds like you have quite a bit of stuff so you may want to talk to people in the shops and see about setting up. Also there are some vacant lots and private parking areas that you can set up in front of on a first come basis. Good luck! You'll be fine! -
