SUNDAY 5th MAY 2013
GRANT'S BLOCK in DOWNTOWN PROVIDENCE
WESTMINSTER + UNION STREETS
FREE ADMISSION !
NOON-6PM
(CAREFULLY READ ALL OF THIS EMAIL!)
this is one of our most popular events. it's like the kick-off of
Providence's Block Party / Festival Season. this year it'll be even bigger
and better than before, because we've arranged for more of the
streets surrounding Grant's Block to be shut down.
because of how popular this event has become, vendor space will
sell out almost immediately, so if you want in, please read all of this email
very carefully and follow our instructions. even if you're a regular vendor
with us, you must apply using our online vendor application
(no exceptions!) but do read all of this first to be sure
that this event is right for you).
this event is outdoors and differs from our indoor events. for this
we provide you nothing but an empty space in Grant's Block (which
is a little park area) and/or on the surrounding streets, so know that
you must provide your own tent, tables + chairs if you need them!
because it's outdoors, we're offering spaces up to 10' x 10' to allow for
standard eventing tents. these spaces are much larger than at our indoor
events, but this event is done "flea market style" with nothing provided except
space. you can share a space but it's entirely up to you to find someone
to share with. if you're approved and you'd like to share your space just
let us know who you're sharing with so that we can
publicize everyone's participation.
the Vendor Fee for this is $75 and Due in Advance of the event, but
vendor space is only reserved with Advance Payment (first-come-first-paid)
and you must first Apply Right Away if you are at all interested (but if you
do not agree with the terms in this email, please don't bother applying!).
the vendor fee is to be paid through PayPal (all you need is a credit card
to pay through PayPal - you don't have to have an account, but their
accounts are free) and this is how we accept payments, so we strongly
recommend getting an account if you want to do our events.
we'll send you payment info once you apply online.

(1) you apply, (2) we approve your application if you
applied in time, (3) we send you an acceptance email along
with payment information, (4) you get to be a vendor at the event
only if your payment is received before we're sold out of space.
NO SPACES HELD WITHOUT APPLYING + ADVANCE PAYMENT!
~ Our Basic Terms ~
if approved and you pay on time, you're in! - but you must agree
to all of terms/rules in this email and our vendor confirmation email
(which will be sent closer to the date of the event itself). vendor fees
are not refundable for any reason. the event is rain or shine.
other rules: nothing illegal or incredibly offensive
may be sold. you also must pick up after yourselves - if you leave trash
or anything else in the space, you will not be allowed to do our events
in the future. by applying, you also agree to not hold us, our business,
our events, our cats, our sponsors or anyone else liable for any
loss or damage incurred before, during or after this event.
keep in mind that it's your responsiblity to deal with sales tax
so be prepared to comply with this (we'll make it as easy as possible)
if you have any questions, feel free to Reply to this Email.
we're sorry we haven't been able to throw more events this past year.
we had to relocate our shop What Cheer? after losing our lease after being in
our old spot for over 13 Years. while we love our new location on Thayer Street,
this has been a very mentally and physically trying year. if you happen
to own property and have tenants, we hope you'd never put them
through this. if you do, look out for karma . . .
we'll review all applications as soon as we can, and our acceptance
emails will go out on Sunday or Monday at the latest. be sure to be on the
lookout for our acceptance email, as it will give you payment instructions
and, as stated before, spaces are reserved on a first-come-first-paid-basis
and once we're out of space, there's nothing we can do.
note that while vendors for our events are almost always chosen
in an open-minded unjuried way, we do reserve the right to decide if
we feel something isn't appropriate. if this is the case, we'll
write you and explain why.
