This vendor fee is non-refundable, regardless of any event cancellations or no-shows on the part of the vendor.
Booths CAN be shared, with no more than 2 vendors per booth space. All vendors in the Potter’s Alley must be SCCA Full-Access member potters, and must be listed on your application. Please only submit ONE application per booth space. The vendor fee should be paid by one person, and there can only be one contact person per booth for SCCA to share market updates with.
Booth space is 10x10 ft. spot in an outdoor grassy space. The vendor is responsible for providing ALL booth materials including tents, tables, decor, etc. The vendor is responsible for all load-in/load-out. Additional details will be provided closer to the date of the festival.
If participating in 2 days of this market, you are able to leave your items overnight in Coolidge Park. AVA will provide overnight security in the park, but there are never any guarantees when it comes to severe weather or other catastrophes. We recommend taking any valuable items with you, and securing your tent down over your tables to help with security of your items, and to protect against weather or wind damage. The vendor (you) are ultimately responsible for any and all items or personal belongings in your booth so if you don’t feel comfortable with leaving your items overnight, you can tear down at the end of Day 1 and set up again at the beginning of Day 2.
