Honest Shop: Call for Handmade Wares

MOCA
April 09, 2019 by Akin Collective in Call for Submissions

The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) invites you to showcase and sell your handmade products in its Honest Shop!

Accepting Items: April 4th to May 8th, 2019.

Weekly Drop Off Times: Thursdays 3-5pm, Friday 4-6pm at the Welcome Desk.

The Honest Shop will be open to the public beginning on May 10th, 2019 and run through July.

What is the Honest Shop

Honest Shop is a space that sells goods by makers in the local community. There is no selection process for what can be sold - provided the goods are handmade. 

Honest Shop aims to offer a space for cultural practices that could be considered useful, to showcase amateur crafts, making and skills, while also presenting a way for hidden talent to be exposed and supported.

The shop runs on a self-serve basis, relying on the honesty of customers. 80% will go to the maker and 20% will go back to the maintenance of the Shop and MOCA's Art in Use program

For more information contact honestshop@moca.ca
