Brooklyn collective seeks designers

*** CALL FOR ENTRIES ***

Brooklyn Collective, located in Carroll Gardens Brooklyn, is seeking artists, designers and craftsmen to participate in a collective storefront.

Entries will be judged on quality and creativity. The size of the collection is of no importance.
Selected entrants will be offered a space within the collective; both long and short time spaces are available.

Minimal rent is shared but 100% of each artist’s profits will be solely theirs. Participants will also receive free placement on the Brooklyn Collective website, as well as an opportunity to represent their work at Brooklyn Collective’s Bi- monthly parties and PR events.

MISSION STATEMENT

Brooklyn Collective was established in response to the need for a space where craftsmen can showcase their work free from the pressures of mass-market retail.
