In addition to her arts business consulting work with artists, Marlo M. also volunteers much of her time to organize the local craft community known as etsyRAIN.com.
What is etsyRAIN?
etsyRAIN is Etsy’s official Seattle Metropolitan “Street Team”: A volunteer organized, not-for-profit group of regional artists and craft makers who own and operate independent shops on Etsy.com
What is Etsy?
Etsy is an online marketplace for buying & selling all things handmade.
Etsy’s mission is to enable people to make a living making things, and to reconnect makers with buyers. Etsy’s vision is to build a new economy and present a better choice: Buy, Sell, and Live Handmade.
About our association with Etsy.com
As a rule, Etsy supports our work but does not govern our group in any way. The majority of our team’s efforts and events are not directly affiliated with Etsy.com: They have generously allowed us to use their online resources to establish our group here in the Puget Sound region.
About our Members
We have members as far north as Port Townsend and as far south as Olympia with the majority of members residing in the greater Seattle Metropolitan area. We welcome all artists and craft makers from the Puget Sound region to join us!
Our Mission
EtsyRAIN’s mission is to nurture a supportive local community of artists and craft makers that will inspire, educate and promote the growth of our individual shops on Etsy and beyond.
