The following spells out the procedure for participating in  the market to help you fully understand  and be prepared for a great event experience.

MARKETING

We want you to be successful in attracting buyers, potential collectors, and commissions. Drawing the right people to the event starts with marketing. We request that you promote your attendance at the event at least twice in the week leading up to Saturday.  please tag  and add comments to your posts that include the following hashtags:  #shopsatzannys #shopjt #shopjtart #shopjoshuatree #joshuatree #jtreeculture #desertartists

LOAD IN

Load in begins for everyone at 3 p.m. on Saturday.

To allow everyone ample time to set up, vehicles should only be parked inside the lot for as long as it takes you to unload. Once you have unloaded everything into your spot, please drive out of the lot, park in the designated vendor parking lot and then come back to begin setting up. Signs will be posted to guide you. Anyone who drove separately to help you set up should not pull in the lot at all, unless they have items of yours to unload.

ELECTRICITY

Currently there is limited electricity at the market, enough for adequate lighting of your booth.  It will not accommodate large power draws such as cooking needs.   The power should only be used for reasonable lighting (keeping in mind our night sky rules) or for your charging your phone or Point-of-Sale devices.

Generators are NOT permitted.

WIFI

There is WiFi available for you.  You will receive log in info when you arrive. 

TRASH

There are three Burrtec trash cans on site: two maroon Burrtec trash cans for regular trash and one grey can for recyclable materials.  There are also several accessory trash cans on the property. All we ask is that you place all trash in the appropriate receptacles on the property. Please do not leave trash at your assigned site – we know who you are. We’re doing our best to keep costs down and adding a clean-up crew to ‘sweep’ the parking lot for trash after events is not in the budget. It could be and that cost would be passed on the vendors.

BREAKDOWN AND LOAD OUT

Please do not start breaking down your set-up and booth until 9:30 p.m.

If the crowd is good and you’d like to stay set-up until 10 p.m., you are welcome to do so.

As with Load In, please breakdown your booth set-up in its entirety BEFORE pulling your vehicle into the parking lot to load it.

If some artists have decided not to break down until 10 p.m., please be cautious of eventgoers, pets and other booths. Slow, steady and respectful wins the day.

 BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE EVENT AREA:

~ Have you packed out what you packed in? Unplugged any electric?

~ Is the area where your booth was free of trash? Even if it’s not yours?
