The Crafty Collective
The Crafty collective is a group of community artists and crafters that participate in a shared space to teach classes and workshops as well as selling their finished arts and crafts in the collective retail space. This retail space is curated by the artists that participate in the collective and the owners of The Crafty.
Collaborative Energy- is a big part of The Crafty’s focus. The space has been thoughtfully arranged to accommodate small classes being taught simultaneously. This gives the space a feel of community and by interacting with each other that is exactly what we are creating, community.
A Supportive Space-Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process. While many of our classes are geared for 21 and older we will offer kids and teens classes as well.
Artist and Mediums- All artists and mediums are encouraged to apply for consideration to be a part of the collective. We encourage even the simplest of mediums to be presented as we are all at different skill levels of arts and crafts. We will be hosting 101 classes frequently and they will be geared for everyone.
What is the commitment- We asked if you are chosen to participate in the collective that you are able to commit to six months. This commitment may look different from artist to artist. The Crafty space is available for collective members to teach stand alone classes. The member will in turn keep a large portion of the class fees. The collective members are also entitled to selling their art/craft in the retail space at The Crafty. There will be some volunteer work expected. Let me break it down.
Teach your stand alone classes where you as the artist keep a large portion of the class fee.
Sell your arts & crafts in the collective retail space. The collective retail space will be opened to the public Wed-Sat. and the split is 75% member-25% The Crafty.
Volunteer to help with small class events once a month.
To Sign Up For Consideration- We are so excited to bring this to the wonderful community of Mineral Point. If you are interested in joining (we hope you are!!!) Don’t be shy! Please file out this short questionnaire and we will reach out to chat and get to know you! The Crafty Questionnaire.
