Holiday Shopping Spectacular 2024 - November 9 and 10 at Yaarab Temple

Thanks for your interest in participating in the Indie Craft Experience. We are seeking vendors who make handcrafted creations or art with an indie aesthetic and vintage vendors selling items from all decades. All items sold at the Indie Craft Experience must be handmade by you or must be vintage. This is a juried event with a limited number of slots. We receive many applications and cannot accept everyone.  There is no burning products of any kind allowed. This includes but is not limited to candles and incense. We will not consider your application if it is not complete or if we receive it after the deadline. A complete application includes all the information we request below and payment. If your card on file is declined upon processing, you may not be accepted.  Fee: The fee to participate is $295 ($15 processing fee + $280 booth fee). Upon completing the application process, your card will be charged the $15 processing fee. If you are accepted, your card will be charged the additional $280 upon acceptance. If you are not accepted, your card will not be charged $280, only the $15 processing fee. We will not be holding funds during the application process any longer.  For those accepted, we offer a short grace period after acceptance emails are sent out. This is the only opportunity to receive a refund. If accepted, but you are unable to participate we will offer a refund for the booth fee of $280 if you notify us by September 20. After that, we cannot offer a refund – no exceptions. If the event is canceled due to severe weather, other Acts of God (example: a major surge in number of COVID-19 cases in our area or another pandemic) or conditions beyond the control of the Indie Craft Experience, we will offer a refund of 50% of the booth fee ($140). We cannot offer a full refund because of the extensive expenses of producing an event. Cancellation will be determined by the venue with input from the Indie Craft Experience. Sharing: Booth sharing is allowed at this particular event. Please reach out to indiecraftexperience@gmail.com and include both vendors on the email chain.  Space: Each vendor will have a space that is 6 ft. wide x 5 ft. deep. The space is completely empty so vendors are responsible for providing their entire display: table, chairs, table clothes, racks, etc. We do NOT have tables and chairs for you to rent.  We have an extremely small staff, and it is your responsibility to haul your belongings and to set up & break down your display. We suggest doing a mock set up at your home/studio before the event by marking the space on the floor and setting up your display so you can see the amount of space you have to work with.  Day of the Event: The event takes place at Yaarab Temple on Saturday November 9th and Sunday November 10th from 11a-5p. Set up will be done on a staggered schedule Saturday morning. We will send out the schedule to vendors who are accepted. It is very important that everyone respect the time slot they are given.  Please, do not break down early. You are expected to remain set up until 5 p.m. If you break down early we may not be able to accept you for future markets. If you have to break down early due to an emergency please let us know (even if it is via email after the fact). Responsibility: The Indie Craft Experience and Yaarab Temple are not responsible for personal injury or any items damaged or stolen during the duration of the event (including move-in, move-out, and the hours of the event). It is the responsibility of each vendor to transport their belongings and to not leave valuables unattended. The Indie Craft Experience and Yaarab Temple are not responsible for your belongings. Vendors are encouraged to purchase their own event insurance if interested. Our policy does not cover vendors. The Indie Craft Experience and Yaarab Temple are not responsible for any inherent risk associated with contracting COVID-19 at public gatherings.
