Costumer's Marketplace
Welcome to the Costume College 2008 Costumer’s Marketplace. We are always working make your shopping experience wonderful, and are pleased to promise an exciting variety of both familiar and new specialty dealers.
The Costumer’s Marketplace is always open to the general public as well as to Costume College members. (Please see hours at left.) If you have friends who will not be not attending Costume College, invite them to the Marketplace. It can be a great "first taste" that gives people a sense of what the College has to offer. Our goal for Costumer's Marketplace is to bring together a perfect mix of costume supplies and information that will fulfill all of your costume needs, desires and dreams.
If you would like to apply to be a vendor for Costume College 2009, please feel free to contact me directly at blukitty@earthlink.net or (323) 733-3964. A link to the dealers' application for marketplace space in 2009 will be available soon.
Enjoy Costume College! --Cat Slater-Woodward
