ABOUT THE SHOW: (for artists)
For this, our fifth year, we will again have live music and dance performances in our beautiful garden area, which will be set up with tables with umbrellas. For our patrons, Paciugo Gelato will be selling treats in the garden, and Angelo's Italian Grill will be selling lunch items inside. We traditionally offer a free lunch to artists on Saturday and Sunday, as well as coffee and donuts/bagels for breakfast Saturday morning. Our volunteer staff is very helpful and can assist you during the show. This year we will be utilizing our front lawn area for artists who have tents, providing greater visibility to draw patrons from the high volume of traffic on Abrams.
SPACE RENTAL FEES AND PROCEDURES:
Artists are offered a space for rent for the show. In addition to the rental fee, we ask that each artist donate a piece to the Silent Auction, value between $25 and $35. We DO NOT charge a percentage of sales. Full sized indoor spaces (10 X 10) are $275. Mid-sized spaces are $225 (8 X 8, 9 X 7, and 10 X 6.5), and a limited number of small and hallway (table display) spaces are available for $150 to $175. Tent spaces (10 X 10) on our lawn area are $175. If you want a tent space you must supply your own tent (please supply a photo of your tent/booth with your application). We can provide a table and chairs, but you will need to provide your own method of display. Electricity can be made available to most locations.
If your application is accepted, a contract and release of liability will be sent to you and/or will be available on the website. You will need to return the completed forms with payment by August 3rd. If you return the forms with payment by July 25th you will be offered an opportunity to select your booth's location after the priority period for past participants has ended.
Artists may begin setup on Friday morning, September 5th and will be expected to finish setup by 6:45pm on the 5th, as we will be having our VIP Preview Party for artists and sponsors that evening. Outdoor participants may provide a sample for the VIP Preview, then move all work indoors overnight, and set up on Saturday Morning. More details to follow but we usually have the preview at the site from 7:00pm to 8:00pm then go to a nearby restaurant or lounge for complimentary food and beverages.
