Barter Market at the Carriage Factory

  • Art 634 634 North Mechanic Street Jackson, MI, 49202 United States (map)

Curious to explore what a marketplace looks like outside the confinements of monetary exchange? Join us on Sunday, March 24th at the Carriage Factory for a Barter Market! Bartering is whatever you make it, but our goal is to provide an opportunity to trade goods & services within our Jackson (& beyond?) community. We are aiming to make this event inclusive, accessible, & co-creative! Let us know how to make that happen for you!

Don’t have anything *special* to offer other than money? No worries! Cash is KING & vendors will also be open to monetary sales. Let’s help them avoid processing fees & come ready to barter with CASH.

CURIOUS TO BECOME A VENDOR
OR SHARE YOUR SKILLS/OFFERINGS?
READ ON!

Whether it’s your art or craft, crops, food, goods, a dope collection of rocks or glass or records, your business, trade, or skill shares - we want you to join us at the Carriage Factory on Sunday March 24th.

The only requirement is that you are open to trading all or some of what you are offering. Monetary sales will (of course) also be acceptable & we are encouraging people to bring CASH to avoid any processing fees.

FYI: Bartering is NOT haggling! Don’t try to knock someone’s price down, the seller determines the worth of what they are exchanging.

All registration fees go toward paying the musician(s) & heating/renting the carriage factory at Art 634. Vendors must provide their own set-up.
Booth fee: $15-25 sliding scale for a 10x10(ish) space with table + chair
Blanket fee: $5-$10 sliding scale for a floor space with a blanket + chair
Walking fee: $5 to share what’s in your backpack
VENDORS MUST PROVIDE THEIR OWN TABLES, CHAIRS, BLANKETS.

We are unfortunately not offering space for any more musicians for this first market.
