Toronto Dark Arts Market

Welcome to the home of Toronto Dark Arts Market. We present curated artisan and vintage markets dedicated to all things weird and wonderful.

SCAM ALERT

Please be aware that this website is the only place to apply to take part in a Toronto Dark Arts Market event.

We never use JotForm, Google docs or any other third party application form, and we communicate with vendors exclusively via our official torontodarkartsmarket.com email address; never a gmail address.

If you see a vendor call posting on social media or EventBrite from any account or individual other than the official Toronto Dark Arts Market account, or using a gmail address or JotForm, it is a scam.

While we do our best to prevent these types of scams, and get them shut down when they occur, we are not responsible for providing either a spot or a refund to any vendor ripped off by scammers. Please do your research and due diligence, and only use this website/email with regards to your application and payment.

For info on specific events, including vendor call information, click on the flyer for each event.

Toronto Dark Arts Market is an in-person marketplace dedicated to all things weird and wonderful. Our artisan markets feature artists, artisans, musicians, writers, and other makers of alternative goodness.

Toronto Dark Arts Market is run by Sheryl Kirby. Involved in Toronto’s Goth and alternative scene since the late 1980s, Sheryl’s company Stained Productions has over thirty years of experience in concert and event production including Convergence 4, Hallowmas, and Toronto Indie Arts Market.

Sheryl holds certificates from George Brown College in Event Management as well as Food and Hospitality. She has run a vintage clothing store, a teeny tiny record label, a catering company, and for a decade was one of Toronto’s most respected food writers. She is also an author, artist, and artisan herself, and has vast experience with artisan markets both as a producer and a vendor.

Ground Control (1279 Queen Street West) is a Bowie-inspired lounge and dance club created by DJ Lazarus. This gorgeous space is fully accessible, has an ATM on site, and boasts both a lounge area and a large space for live performances and dance nights.

Artisans – please visit the Vendor Information page before contacting us with queries – you will find an extensive FAQ, Vendor Mailing List form, and (when applicable) a link to the application form.

Customers visiting our market may find the answer to their question on the Visitor Information page.
