About the application

Thank you for applying to be a Craft Vendor at the upcoming Shakori Hills GrassRoots Festival, May 2-5 2024!
 
Craft Vendor Information & Application Procedures
Eligibility: All applicants must be the creators of the art or craft displayed. All applications received by the deadline are reviewed by a jury for acceptance/decline. Resale vendors will not be considered for booth spaces.
 
Jury Procedure: A jury consisting of those who work in varying areas of art select these vendors. Our jury changes every year so please understand that if your work is not selected for one festival, it may be selected by another jury the next festival and vice versa. Originality, quality of execution and festival appeal will be reviewed. The crafts area is limited to just 28 spaces. Keep in mind that your application is the only information the jury has of you and your work so your presentation is very important. We urge you to take your time with your application to give the jury the best sense of your work.
 
Spaces: Spaces will accommodate a 10 feet x 10 feet booth. If you have an unusual sized tent or booth please indicate its dimensions. Set up is outdoors on grassy and possibly muddy ground with a slight incline. Vehicles cannot be parked at your booth during the festival; however, if conditions allow you may drive up to your booth to load/unload. Set up must be completed by 9am Thursday morning. No cars will be permitted to drive up to unload after that time.
 
Bring all your own display materials (chairs, tables, etc.), tarps and canopies. Booths are the sole responsibility of the crafts vendor. You must lock up your merchandise at night. Also, please indicate on your application if you have any special placement requests. We will do our best to accommodate those with special needs.
 
**We have a few 10 feet (front) x 20 feet (deep) spaces available and will consider requests on an individual basis. If you are interested in a larger booth space, please note it on your application but understand you may not receive one. The booth fee for 10 x 20 spaces is $450.
