Artisans

An Artisan for the purpose of this program is defined as an individual that makes hand crafted products without the use of kits, commercial models and whose primary components are not manufactured.

Artisans will be located at Tour Farm Sites and can sell their products.  Farmers Markets are tour sites but we do not place artisans at these locations as they have their own rules and regulations for participating.

Examples of artisans include but are not limited to painters, potters, weavers, quilters, acoustic musicians, artisan bakers, value-added producers, etc.

There is NO FEE to participate.

Bakers and value-added food producers must provide a copy of any applicable permit required to sell your product in South Carolina.

Artisans can participate on different weekends but must complete a separate application for each county/weekend.

Artisans will be able to rank their site location preference.  Artisans will also be able to share if they have a previous relationship with a particular farm site.

The Ag + Art Tour County Planning Teams will make every effort to place artisans at their requested location but this placement cannot be guaranteed.  If multiple artisans select the same location, placement will be based on a first-come-first-served basis, with special attention given to the type of artisan to allow for a diversity of activities at each site. A listing of participating farm sites can be found here: www.agandarttour.com/sites.
