The Lyceum Marketplaces are curated on a rolling admission basis. We seek to program a vibrant mix of repeat and new artisans and purveyors. We collect up applications and create the market organically, accepting the same way one would build a sculpture out of clay. Thus we do not do all of the acceptances at one time, even for a particular category.
Once we have selected an artisan an acceptance email is sent with a link to the registration page.
The selected artisan then has 10 days to complete the paperwork and submit payment.
If the selected artisan does not complete the paperwork and pay on time the slot is released and given to another artisan.
Lyceum Marketplaces are designed to get the shopper out of the malls and into the local handmade/artist/artisan scene.
To that end the Lyceum marketplaces have raffles for some interesting things. You can't get a raffle ticket without a proof of purchase form a marketplace vendor. So, come early and load up for birthdays. anniversaries, the holidays and just in general.

Still pondering them for the spring. Stay tuned...
What started off as a collection of purses and bags using vintage, mod and quirky cotton fabrics has developed into a house linen collection as well. All custom made in a little studio in Hells Kitchen.
