Please note: If you do not arrive to set up or call the organizer by 2 pm on Friday or 10:00 am on Saturday/Sunday, we reserve the right to move another vendor into your space to avoid “holes” in the show.

Booth size: Indoor table space 4 x 8 Downstairs table space is limited and priority will be given to those exhibiting Friday and Saturday or Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Please move all cars to the upper parking lot by 2:30 pm on Friday and 10:30 am on Saturday and Sunday. No cars will be allowed in the loading area after those times. Please be ready for business by 3 pm Friday and 11 am on Saturday and Sunday.
Breakdown: 9:00 pm on Friday. 4:00pm Saturday and Sunday. 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. Friday and 4 pm Saturday and Sunday. Artists exhibiting consecutive days may leave their display set up overnight at their own risk. 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.
Please fee free to reach out to any member of the event committee with concerns or questions:
