Please be ready for business by 4 pm Friday and 10 am Saturday.

Breakdown: 9:00 pm on Friday. Please remain set up until the end of the show. When a vendor starts to breakdown before the end of the show it presents a bad look to the customer, either that the show is almost over or sales are so bad the vendor is leaving. Either reflects poorly on your fellow vendors. It is also a matter of public safety. Displays can fall over onto other vendors, their work or customers. For public safety reasons no cars will be allowed in the loading areas until after 9 p.m. If there are extenuating circumstances please speak to a member of the event committee, we are here to help.

The November Makers and Art Market is an indoor event. Please come prepared. No refunds will be given unless the event is cancelled by the Event Committee due to public safety concerns or other emergency.
