Vintage Vendor Agreement
We're gearing up for the swellest event of the summer here on the lakeshore: Mid-Mod Manitowoc is just around the corner, and we want you to be a part of it! On July 25th and 26th, Manitowoc Aluminum Kitschmas, inc. (MAKi) will be hosting a summer convention for collectors of vintage mid-century aluminum, with many of the festivities open to the public. An aluminum tree show, classic car show and food truck corral, educational seminars, tours, banquet and auction are just a few of the offerings, and the event will be a huge attraction for visitors from both near and far.
A focal point of the weekend will be the Vintage Vendor Market: an event spread over two days that will be open to convention-goers and the general public alike - this is where you come in! We're looking for vendors with anything vintage, mid-mod, 50's-60's-70's, from furniture to fashion. Art, jewelry, homegoods, smalls, tchotchkies - you name it! Even and especially vintage Christmas items! If you have stuff to sell, we want you there! Anything and everything mid-mod hip or retro is welcome... And the best part is that it is only $50.00 for you to participate!
