Description
| 30th Annual Art and Craft Show. This annual event brings vendors from all over the southeast to sell their original, handcrafted items. The Sneak Preview is new this year. It will be a free 2 hour preview for Teachers from the Teachers’ Convention and some State Employees. Exhibitors are encouraged to sell their work at the preview. We understand that some of you may not be completely set up, and that some may not set up until the following morning. We are not charging the exhibitors or the customers for this preview. We do ask, for security purposes, that if you are already set up, have someone there for the 2-hour preview to sit your booth and sell your work. No buy resale. ALL EXHIBITORS MUST SEND 3 PHOTOS OF THEIR WORK. SAC’S reserves the right to refuse any application and to require the removal of any item(s) considered objectionable, or which do not meet the guidelines set forth above. The “Best Art Booth,” the “Best Craft Booth,” the “Most Unique Booth,” and, “Exhibitors’ Award” will each receive a Special Rosette and a $100 or more valued award. |
