HOURS: 10:00 AM to 5:00
PM; Set up 7:30 AM to
9:30 AM. All booths must
be set up by 9:00 AM and

REGISTRATION/FEES/CANCELLATIONS:
The show is open to all
current OVCAG members on
a
first-come-first-served
basis. The entry fee is
$50 if the application
is received by April 20,
2005, and $60.00 after
April 20th. Two artists
may share a booth, with
each artist paying $30
before April 20, and $35
thereafter. We need to
know if we have a viable
sale by April 20, and
before funds are
committed for
advertising, etc. Please
show your enthusiasm by
registering early! After
May 7, 2005, entry fees
will only be refunded if
the artist replaces
him/herself in the sale.
If weather or
circumstances beyond
OVCAG's control cause
the event to be
cancelled, OVCAG will
refund each exhibitor's
share of the fees after
deducting nonrefundable
expenses incurred by
OVCAG.
CANOPIES AND
TABLES: Booth spaces
are 10'x10'. If
requested, OVCAG will
arrange for the rental
of canopies and tables
at a nominal charge to
the exhibitor. There are
no shady spots at this
site. Your own booth
and/or display equipment
may be used. If you need
rental items, you MUST
request them with your
application form.
Changes to your rental
order must be received
by May 7, 2005.
LOGISTICS: Set
up begins at 7:30 am.
All booths must be set
up by 9:30 am, and all
cars removed to the
Exhibitors' parking
area. Exhibitors may not
begin to pack and move
out until the show
closes. Artists are
responsible for staffing
their own spaces,
pricing and selling
their work, writing up
"tickets"
(which the customer will
take to central
Cashier), and wrapping
the work after the
customer had paid. Sales
tax will be added by the
cashier and should not
be included in your
prices. (Taxes will be
collected and paid by
OVCAG). The Guild has
set up an account for
credit card processing,
and will collect a 15%
commission on all work
sold during the day. The
dominant items for sale
must be hand made by the
artist and of silica
clay.
SALE JOBS:
Every exhibitor must
sign up to help with the
sale. There are
pre-sale, during-sale,
and post-sale jobs to be
done. You can also
invite a friend to fill
a day-of-sale job slot.
Two hours minimum are
required. More detailed
information is on the
application form.
