https://www.cognitoforms.com/StarvingArtistMarket1/_2021SAMVendorsLiabilityWaiver

There is a MANDATORY Vendor Liability and Non-Refundable Vendor Fee Waiver that every vendor needs to sign. If you have not already signed your waiver, please do so here. THIS IS A ONE-TIME SIGN - AND WILL BE GOOD FOR ALL OF 2021. Failure to have a waiver on file will exempt you from being chosen as a participating vendor.

STEP 1: Make sure you sign the waiver if you have never done a market with us in 2021 yet.

STEP 2: If you are selected to be a vendor, you will get an invoice sent from StarvingArtistMarketCLT from Square or a direct link to pay through PayPal.

Please note, like most markets and festivals, this market is NON_REFUNDABLE. We plan to hold the market rain or shine, but in the event of severe (dangerous) weather or other unforeseen emergencies, we will cancel. If we are forced to cancel due to weather or you are unable to attend, we will not issue refunds or credits since your vendor fees will have been spent on marketing, supplies, and all other market costs. I appreciate your understanding.

HANDMADE VENDORS ONLY, PLEASE!!!!

Please read:
The Starving Artist Market (SAM) aims to promote local artists and artisans while providing them with venues to set up, sell, and share their handmade pieces.

1. Applications must be filled out in their entirety, and the non-refundable vendor waiver must be signed. That waiver needs to be signed once and will cover you for all of the 2021 events you do with SAM. There might be other waivers you will need to sign on a venue-by-venue basis; when that happens, you will be emailed with that waiver to sign.

2. All items on display must be handmade. No MLM companies will be accepted in addition to your handmade products.

3. No tents exceeding 10x10 feet will be allowed. Tents are not allowed to be set up at any of our inside venues.

4. Tent weights are mandatory for each leg. 20lbs+ each. Failure to have adequate weights, you will be asked to take down your tent during setup. Approved tent weights include velcro sandbags filled with at least 20lbs of sand EACH, cement PVC tubes, 30lb cinder blocks tied to the legs, and the top of the tent. Anything else ( free weights, tent disk weights, water jugs, bricks) is not approved.

5. SAM does not provide electricity, wifi, tables, chairs, tents, or tent weights.

6. Our events are advertised as “rain or shine”  and are treated as such. All participants are expected to participate during any weather we might encounter and are expected to have the necessary equipment to accommodate these weather conditions.

7. Each vendor is responsible for space clean-up. Failure to do so will result in a $20 fine that you will need to pay before participating in a future event.

8. Vendors must remain open for the entirety of the market and cannot tear down until the event conclusion. Early breakdown will result in a ban from all future markets, with NO REFUND - if you were previously accepted.

9. Vendors will be responsible for the behavior of their guests/children. For safety reasons, all children under 13 must stay within the designated vendor booth or have parental supervision while shopping at the market.

10. The Starving Artist Market Committee reserves the right to ask any vendor at any time for any reason to leave the event.

Starving Artist Market does NOT in any way guarantee sales or customer buying potential.
