For
Triboriginal 2008, we are shifting the vending
pavilion to the green in front of the dining
hall. This should ensure the best possible exposure
for vendors and give folks in line for meals
plenty to look at!
This year they assure us they will be able to
offer ample lighting and electricity, allowing
vendors to stay open at night and catch the
night owls if they wish.
We will also offer Thursday night entry and
setup for all vendors, making it easier to set
up in time for the event. Vendors and their
employees will be able to stay in their cabins
Thursday night as well for an additional $15
each, considerably cheaper than a hotel.
Vendors can reserve space in 5' x 10' increments,
making it easier to customize your space.
A
very limited number of vendors will be accepted
for Triboriginal
2008 so please register early to reserve your
space!
Vendors
must be registered with either the Full
Packageregistration
(enabling you to take classes) or the new Vendor Pass,
which is a discounted rate that we have added to offset
the increase in vendor fees. Each vending assistant
must also be registered. Registration and the Vendor
Pass covers your site fee, insurance, administrative
costs, food, and lodging. Vendors are welcome to lodge
offsite or bring their own meals; however the price
is the same.
Fees are non refundable. Spaces are sold in 5' x
10' increments and are $125 each.
Five spaces (250 sq. ft.) are $550
(over 10% discount).
Tables
are available to rent at the rate of $15 each for
the weekend (delivered to your space) or bring your
own.
Individual
companies may not share space with other vendors.
Each vendor must pay for their own space.
Please plan to arrive and set up between 3-7pm on
Thursday. You will be able to stay onsite Thursday
night. You can also opt to arrive Friday morning,
but we request that you be set up by the time the
gates open at Noon on Friday.
As
ever, vendors are encouraged to be self-sufficient
in terms of lighting/cords/seating etc.
The
schedule is posted online, to offer you a glimpse
of the daily rhythm of the event. Most dance classes
are in the Theater (aka "The Mike") and
the Dining Hall. Dance and music shows are scheduled
for both Friday & Saturday evenings in the Theater.
Your
vendor coordinator is Miki. Please
contact her at mikib@nlisc.com if you have any vending
questions! Please refer all monetary inquiries to
Onca at onca@barakamundi.com.
All
merchandise must fit in the space paid for. Your
area will be clearly defined.
Fees
are non-refundable.
A
