Booth details
This is an indoor & outdoor event. Yay!
Most indoor booths will be 8'x8'. A few booths will be more rectangular shaped. We are working around pillars to make sure you don't have a big pillar blocking your awesomeness.
All outdoor booths will be 10'x10'.
Electricity is available for a few indoor booths, but very limited.
Wi-fi is available both indoor & outdoor.
If you have a preference, please just let us know when you receive your acceptance email.
What does Zeleny/Green mean to us?
To us, green means using our resources wisely. Many times, creativity is key in living a green life. Thus, we want to highlight all of that amazing eco-friendly creativity! Not only that, but by buying handmade, we can put money right back into our local economy, which is wonderful for everyone! We also want to educate and inform our guests of all ages of the benefits of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, organic and eco-friendly products and services.
How will you decide who gets to participate in the event?
Zeleny is a juried show. The Zeleny Art Fair team will select what we believe is the best blend of products consistent with the overall event theme. Applicants will be notified of acceptance status within the first full week of March, 2012.
May I share a booth?
Yes, we love team work! But no more than two vendors are allowed per booth, please.
How will the word get out about the show?
The promotion of a first-time event takes a village (much like raising kids). We will be utilizing facebook, twitter, local businesses, printed advertisements, radio ads and anything else we can get our little eco-indie hands on. Whether you are a vendor or just an interested party, shout it from the mountain tops! You can also post this event on any social networking sites, print posters and contact your village of eco-indie enthusiasts.
Cancellation
If you decide you are no longer able to participate in Zeleny, our eyes will tear up and our chins will quiver a little, but we understand that life's happenings are not always in our control. Please let us know as soon as possible because we expect to have a wait list of Zeleny lovers who would like to have your spot. Unfortunately, booth fees are non-refundable. If Zeleny must be canceled due to circumstances beyond our control (extreme weather, wild fire, unicorn invasion, etc.), your vendor fee is not able to be refunded. Fees are spent on advertising long before the show takes place.
