PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS & KEY INFO:
BOOTH ACTIVITY:
Provide a no-charge, art-themed/educational activity on both days. Acceptance will be heavily based on the merit of our activity.
The booth must be interactive; no stagnant booths.
For the sake of fairness to all vendors, our organization agrees not to sell any products or charge for any services (only memberships/volunteer recruitment are allowed).
You are welcome to hand out information packets and flyers; however, please do not "paper" the Festival grounds, as it causes a lot of trash waste and is against our Greening mission.
STAFFING & ACCOUNTABILITY
- Participation during both days at the Festival is mandatory.
- Our organization agrees to have at least one representative present at our booth to help supervise the art activity during all Festival hours.
- If a participant abandons their booth or breaks down early during the festival weekend, they may not be invited back.
LOGISTICS & EQUIPMENT
- Must supply your own weighted tent (no larger than 10x10), tables, chairs, extension cords, and decorative displays. Don't have a tent? The Festival works with In Tents Events; feel free to rent your tent/ tables/ chairs from them, as they will already be on-site.
- Please note that this road has a slight slope and is a slightly uneven street. Please set up your booth in a way that mitigates trip hazards.
- We encourage branded decor (i.e. table cloths, banners, etc.). The more colorful and curated your setup, the more enticing your booth will be.
