Space: Each vendor is allocated a ten by ten foot space or 2 ten by ten foot spaces. Space assignments are made at the sole discretion of URBNmarket and are based on available space and total number of participating vendors. Tents are required at this outdoor event. Tents must be staked or weighted. f you choose to weight your tent instead of staking, each tent leg must be securely weighted down with 40 or more pounds of weight at all times in order to sell at URBNmarket. Any damage incurred by a vendor due to insufficient weights or staking will be at that vendor’s expense. If you don't have a tent, there are a limited number of tented spaces available for an additional $25/day. All vendors must bring their own tables and chairs. All activity of an exhbit must be contained in the allocated space. Vendors are responsible for their entire display including full-length table cloths (to cover any items stored beneath tables) and business signs or banners. Vendors may not staple, tape, nail, attach, or otherwise affix posters, displays or signs to any walls or floors and further not to mark, paint, drill into or any way deface the property.
Cancellation Policy: We offer a 50% refund upon emailed notification to the URBNmarket received up until 60 days prior to your scheduled event(s). Unfortunately, we can not offer refunds for cancellations within 60 days of your scheduled event due to the administrative work already done by this time and loss of revenue to the URBNmarket. Vendors can not transfer a paid fee to a future market. If a seller must cancel after paying the vendor fee, he/she must email the URBNmarket so that another seller may be pulled from the waitlist. No-shows forfeit their right to participate in future shows. Vendors can not "sell" or "rent" their space to another vendor if they are unable to participate - we do maintain a waitlist and reserve the right to fill spots as we see appropriate.
Inclement Weather: This is an outdoor event. Rain date is Saturday, September 23, 2017. There are no refunds if dates are rained out.
Sharing Space: You may share a space with another vendor, BUT you must apply together. This is a juried event so we must approve both of you. All fees will be paid in full by one individual, not separately.
