We are accepting handmade/craft vendors ONLY. No food, resale, MLM/Direct Sales, or business promotion vendors will be approved at this time.
Vendor spaces are 10’x10′ for a $35 deposit. This deposit will be refundable at the end of the event if all requirements are met. We understand that this is an untested event, and participation may be low. We would like to remove some of the risk from vendors interested in setting up with us, and hope this refundable deposit method will help. See below for more details.
