Art Vendors - 11am - 5pm

Music, Food and Fun - 11am - 9pm

Join us for the 2nd Annual Flip Side Festival of the Arts as we enrich downtown South Milwaukee with music and art. This community event not only showcases the local talent scene, but also serves as a crucial fundraiser to expand the programming of Growing South Milwaukee, a non-profit organization benefitting many community initiatives. By attending and participating as a vendor, you’re helping us continue our mission to transform the community through activism.

IMPORTANT: We seek high-quality, handmade fine art and fine craft items created by skilled artists—not mass-produced or inexpensive craft items. We also will not be accepting any MLM companies or products. Our festival celebrates originality, craftsmanship, and artistic excellence.

This is how to apply:

1. Please download the "Flip Side Festival of Arts - Artist Vendor Contract 2025.pdf" and fill it out (you can find it on this page under "Download Forms.").  This must be signed and submitted before you can participate in the event. 

2. Please provide 2-3 photos of your work (or a booth shot).  We will only consider fine art and fine craft artisans for this event. You may include prints of your original artworks, but we prefer 80% of the  items you bring be handmade/homemade originals. 

3. You can email the form and photos of your works to rosenquistboutique@gmail.com or turn it in in-person at Parkway Floral located at 1001 Milwaukee Avenue,  South Milwaukee, WI 53172.  

4. Upon acceptance of your completed form and photos of your works, please pay the $60 fee by following the instructions on the form. We have limited availability under the pavillion and we cannot save your spot until after we receive your payment.
