If using electric, you will need to bring your own electrical cords and duct tape. All set-ups, chairs and items must be located inside your booth space. All exhibitors are expected to present their art/craft in an attractive manner with covered tables and inviting displays. Due to liabilities exhibitors are not allowed to bring pets.

We hold a raffle for artists/crafters to showcase their work. A raffle tag will be provided for you that will detail your booth location and company information so that shoppers can find you. Participation in the raffle is expected and very much appreciated.
