By submitting your application you give our team permission to utilize photos from your social media platforms to help publicize this event.
- Unless you pay for tables with your booth, please plan to provide your own tables and table coverings. Neutral tones and coverage to the floor are preferred.
- All booth areas will be open tables, no tents or canopies, and displays will be limited to 5′ high unless against a wall. Signage not exceeding 4 SF may exceed the 5′ height. The goal is to let folks see across the beautiful space. Window booths may not block daylight.
