Vendor Parking: Vendor parking information will be sent with the set-up instructions in June. Parking for vendors is available near the festival footprint within a short walk. Please note that most of the parking areas are operated by local non-profit organizations or churches as fundraisers on the day of the festival and parking fees apply. There are also free public parking lots within a few walking blocks of the festival footprint. Vendor vehicles may not park with the festival footprint.

● Accepted vendors will be sent a specific staging location and load in time. Vendor vehicles will NOT be permitted in the festival footprint at other times.

● Festival personnel will be at the staging area, along the route to the exhibit area & within the exhibit area to direct you to your assigned space for load-in and to answer any questions.

● Due to the nature of vendor load-in, THERE IS A STRICT LIMIT OF ONE VEHICLE PER VENDOR SPACE PERMITTED DURING LOAD-IN. Bringing more than one vehicle disrupts vendor setup and blocks the road for others. If you bring more than one vehicle, it will not be permitted into the festival area to unload until festival personnel give the all-clear. If you must bring more than one vehicle, make sure you include all preliminary set up items such as tent, tables, etc. in the vehicle you want to go into the festival area first. If you do not follow these guidelines & procedures, you may be barred from the festival for one (1) year.

● No vehicles will be allowed in the festival area later than 1/2 hour prior to starting time.

● ALL vendor applications undergo a juried process by the vendor selection committee. This ensures the festival has a wide variety of items to showcase and to avoid too much repetition.

● ONLY handcrafted, original work by the applicant(s) will be permitted in Saturday’s vendor area. Acceptable works include paintings, watercolors, pen and ink drawings, etchings, photography, clay, metal work, jewelry, fibers, leather, glass, paper, wood, books, and other original works.

● Offset reproductions of an artist’s original work must not comprise more than 50% of exhibited works.

● Commercial goods, mass produced items and buy-sell items are NOT allowed to be sold at the festival. Examples of products not allowed include: Paparazzi Jewelry, Lula Roe, Thirty-one, Arbonne, Doterra Oils, Agnes & Dora, Usborne Books and others as deemed by the vendor selection committee. If you are found to be selling these products during the festival in addition to your approved items, you may not be permitted to return to the festival.

• Specialty Food vendor applications are for snack foods or foods prepared off-site, including fudge, candy, baked goods, jerky, etc. Jams, jellies, and home-canned items must be prepared in a Certified Kitchen, and a certificate is required.
