Sell at the Galleria

Andersonville Galleria is not accepting New Vendor Applications at this time.

Please submit your application after January 7, 2027.

Thank you

Welcome to Andersonville Galleria, where your creativity can thrive and reach a passionate, art-loving audience! Whether you’re an artist, craftsperson, or artisan, we offer a variety of ways to showcase and sell your handmade goods. With flexible opportunities to become a full-time vendor, try a month in our Galleria Loft Artist Series, or launch a weekend pop-up shop, you can find the perfect way to grow your business.

At the Andersonville Galleria, we strive for uniqueness and creativity.

We are looking for individuals with selling experience in consignment shops and/or at art markets, though it’s not a requirement.

We are less a showcase or a traditional art gallery; all work is intended to be sold to a wide audience, and original artworks are not our main focus. While we do accept small originals to be featured inside your space, the main sellers are to be more approachable items such as prints, small three-dimensional works, functional art, handcrafted homewares, jewelry, or clothing, and small ticket items like stickers, magnets, pins, and keychains.

Accepted vendors must have artwork for sale in secure packaging, for example, both hard backings and plastic sleeves for prints, and backing cards for jewelry.

All acceptable works are to be designed/created by an individual or small team.

Visiting the shop before applying is a great way to see if your line of work would be a good fit (in terms of price, size, and style), as we try to avoid direct overlap of product with other vendors as well.

Andersonville Galleria’s Policy on Generative AI

We do not allow the use of generative AI in creating any art or products sold in our store. We believe in the value of human artistic expression and the skill behind it.

To support our artists and vendors, we will not sell any work created with AI. If we discover any art created with AI, it will be removed, and the vendor’s lease may be at risk.

Vendor Testimonials

“The main marketing goal of any working artist is to put their work in front of as many eyes as possible. Not every piece of art is for everyone so the Galleria has afforded me the opportunity to do just that. Having the flexibility to showcase new work as well as the work I am known for has been satisfying to me as an artist. The Galleria has been a venue for that for many years now. In addition to putting your work constantly in front of new viewers, keeping it fresh is what keeps customers interested and what helps an artist grow- it helps to have a hands-on owner who appreciates that.”

Malia Designs has been a grateful vendor at the Andersonville Galleria for almost a decade. It has been an incredible opportunity to reach a diverse audience to not only sell our handbags, but to educate the public on Fair Trade and our social mission to fight Human Trafficking. The staff is kind, knowledgeable and very helpful. We are honored to be a part of the Galleria and appreciative of the continued opportunity to be a part of such creative and innovative group of vendors!

I have been with Anderson Galleria for the past eight years. In that time, both my business and art form has dramatically benefited from being a part of the AG family. Not only has it given me a retail space to be a home base for my customers, but it has been a hive-mind of creativity in terms of connecting me with other artists also in the midst of launching their own businesses.

When I joined the Andersonville Galleria, I already had an established business and brand but not great exposure in the neighborhood. The Galleria has given me an opportunity to present myself to the public in my own way, and to gain new customers from around the world. The Andersonville Galleria has helped me reach new retail and wholesale customers in the 10 years I have been involved.

I have been a vendor at the Andersonville Galleria since 2010. Not only have I made great connections with other artists, I have also built a solid customer base by having a consistent home base for my brand. The Galleria has been a great place for me to test new product and get real customer feedback.

When I first joined the Andersonville Galleria, I had been working a corporate job for about 17 years. I had started my photography business online, part time, a year before and was able to build a successful business, but the Galleria allowed me to take it to a new level. I was able to create a local presence, year round, not just at seasonal art festivals, and was able to do so without the overhead I would have had to put out had I gone in to it on my own. The following year, I was able to leave the corporate world behind and my presence, and success, at the Andersonville Galleria played a big role in that. The additional bonus was that I was surrounded by peers who helped me grow as an artist through idea sharing, sparking new challenges and forming collaborations.

Andersonville Galleria has provided me with an amazing opportunity to sell and promote my business side by side with hundreds of other talented artists. My business has grown over the last 7 years that I have worked with Galleria and would definitely recommend it to any artist or indie maker.

I have enjoyed every minute of working with the Andersonville Galleria. Since I’ve started showcasing my work, I’ve been able to increase my yearly income by 15%. Andrew and Elliot are always ready with an update on sales and what’s been moving best this month. I’m honored to be involved with such a supportive, creative community.
