About Join the Movement
Before you apply, know that we are strict about the 'no-reseller' rule. Our selection committee reviews every application, including video verification of your making process, to ensure that every badge-holder is the genuine maker of their goods.
Why Join Our Membership?
We started A Hundred Hands in a garden with a simple goal: to give the 'karigar' (artisan) the credit they deserve. This membership program is a direct extension of that mission. It is not about selling bulk goods; it is about building a sustainable ecosystem for independent creators.
What Membership Includes
- Verified Authenticity: When you pass our vetting process, you receive our digital badge. It proves to customers that your work is 100% handmade, distinguishing you from resellers.
- Market Access: Members receive priority eligibility for stall bookings at our marquee events like The Festival of Handmade. This gives you access to a curated, high-intent audience that values craft.
- Community & Mentoring: Gain access to our internal network for peer support and corporate gifting opportunities. You are not just getting a stall; you are gaining a support system.
The Application Process
We want to keep this community intimate and genuine. Whether you work with textiles, pottery, or natural fragrances, your application will be reviewed by our selection committee. We look for creators who are passionate about the 'haath ka kaam' (work of the hands) ethos. If you are an independent creator in Bangalore looking to springboard your business, we want to hear from you.
Applications are open on a cycle basis. Once your profile is verified, you become part of the A Hundred Hands collective, opening doors to exhibitions, workshops, and collaborative opportunities across the city.
A Hundred Hands
We are Mala and Sonia. We started this years ago in a garden because we saw brilliant makers who didn't have a place to be seen. We are a tiny, picky team, and we are here to help you get your craft out of your house and into the world.
