Each year Winterthur presents three fabulous market events that draw thousands to the beautiful setting of our garden and estate in the Brandywine Valley. 

A springtime Garden Market in April offers our guests a thoughtfully curated selection of plants, seeds, bulbs, and garden-inspired items for the home and garden. Showcasing handmade crafts by talented regional artisans are Artisan Market in July, a summertime highlight, and Holiday Market in November, the kick-off event for our annual Yuletide celebration.

We invite you to apply to be part of one or more of these traditions. 

Signature events at Winterthur are rooted in our rich heritage, legacy, and mission. These events connect you with an appreciative and enthusiastic audience as you present your wares across a variety of disciplines including art, textiles, ceramics, glass, woodworking, antiques, and gardening as well as artisanal and small-batch gourmet goods. Each of these categories reflect the museum’s own collection and/or history.

All interested artisans will submit a vendor application for consideration. Each show has its own deadline. Information, locations, and requirements vary. Click below for details and applications. Please review all information before applying.
