November 12 – December 24, 2026
Our holiday pop-up is the perfect place to find stocking stuffers, a new ornament to hang on your cat tree, or your next favourite mug, all handmade!
Visit the gallery during our open hours to see local artists’ wares alongside our Juried Show, which also has artworks for sale!
This year we will have two evening shopping nights (Wednesday November 18 & Friday December 18) where your purchases can be wrapped for you.
For Vendors:
This pop-up market will be limited to plinths, shelves, and small tables within the gallery. Each artist will receive about 15 inches x 15 inches of space, and we are looking for items that are generally smaller than 5 inches in every dimension. We will consider submissions in any medium, but the work must be original and handmade.
All sales will be facilitated by Homer Watson House & Gallery. We accept debit, credit, and cash on site. No online sales. Homer Watson House & Gallery will retain 30% of total sales revenue. Items will be dropped off and picked up for only a short time at the start and end of each show, as we don’t have room to keep art in storage.
Application Deadline: Sunday, October 11, 11:59pm
Note: We do try to assess applications and notify applicants as early as possible, but in many cases applications are assessed after the application deadline has passed.
