🎄 Calling all Local Queer/Queer-aligned Creators & Makers! 🎄
Escape the summer heat and join us for the 1st Annual Christmas in July Fundraiser at Summit ArtSpace! Hosted by the Lavender Impact Fund, we are looking for 30 local LGBTQ+ owned or aligned vendors to fill our "Shop Local" market.
This curated event supports the vital mission of Carve Your Own Path (CYOP), helping us keep trauma-informed, gender-affirming mental health care accessible via our sliding pay scale. Align your business with a powerful cause while connecting with your community!
The Details:
📍 Summit ArtSpace, Akron
🗓️ Saturday, July 25th | 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM
💰 Vendor Fee: $50 (directly supports CYOP's sliding scale!)
🪑 Bring your own table; chairs available upon request.
Help us "carve a path" toward a healthier, more inclusive community. Space is limited to 30 vendors, so apply today!
✨ Submit your interest by May 15th: https://sbee.link/y6rq8v4tkj
