Application dead line post marked by March 12th 2012. Applicants will be juried. All applications received after the dead line will be returned. Incomplete applications will not be considered. A complete application includes; ALL FEES; California resale or nonprofit number; PHOTOS, and a SASE of adequate size and postage to cover the return of important documents and photos. This festival grows every year and becomes more competitive, so we encourage you to take your time, put your best foot forward. Photos should show you doing your work, your work shop, your craft & booth. If you need a temporary seller’s permit you call the State Board of Equalization at 707-576-2100 or call your local office.
If you are a food vendor, parking is included in booth fee. Please record your vehicle’s license plate number, vehicle description on the application and enclose a check for $60. The parking spaces are only suitable for vehicles of a maximum length of 20’. Oversized vehicles may park at Benbow RV Park. This restriction includes cars towing trailers. We are unable to sell two spaces to one vendor, so if your length exceeds the limit then you must decide which vehicle will remain on-site and which will be parked off site in general parking area. There is no parking on the lakeside section of the fairway during the festival. This is our fire lane and regulations require us to keep it clear. Cars left parked there will be towed. Cars without parking permit will also be towed. Thanks for your cooperation.
We are offering the opportunity to highlight vendors in our program guide who have demonstrations of their artistic process in their booth, call or email if you’re interested.
We are moving to the greener side of the fence this year, in efforts to reduce waste and help our planet. All of your service wares MUST be compostable. All of our festival refuse will be composted in commercial compost facility after the event. Thank you for helping us, help our earth!
All checks will be deposited immediately (according to GAAP standards.) A $25 processing fee will be deducted from your fee. There is a $30 charge for returned checks. In the event that you did not jury into the festival we will refund your booth fee by March 31st.
We appreciate all the interested crafters. Please visit our web site for more info or contact me at vendorinfo@mateel.org or call 707-923-3368 ext. 31.
My office hours are Tuesday-Thursday 10:30-5:00. Any feed back or comments are greatly appreciated.
