Vendor Infomation

Operating Rules for event participants.

All event participants are expected to represent themselves to a standard of decency while participating in Roc Artist Open Market on the grounds of Innovation Square. As a participant, you represent the event our event sponsors and the experience to the patrons of the event. Any behavior not fitting can lead to their dismissal from the event and as a future participant. 

All participants as well as attendees are expected to adhere to and promote an all-inclusive community for all to come together in this festive celebration of the arts where hate is never tolerated. In the case that an issue arises, you are to contact the event manager on site.

As always be prepared for anything, sun, rain, and wind can always be a factor outdoors.

Weights for your canopy are REQUIRED, ALWAYS. No less than 30 pounds per leg. Small round plastic weights, bricks etc…. are not enough to keep you from losing your canopy and products to a gust of wind, and possibly damaging others property as well.

If you are not using a canopy, make sure you have planned out how to set up your display not to be blown away, and to be sheltered from the sun or rain if they are a factor.

When a vendor is not prepared it impacts other vendors who take time to assist, which leaves that vendor less time tending to their booth, set up ,supplies, and their customers.

Bring the things you need, tape, rope, string, wire, pens, makers, scissors, phone charger supply, clamps, weights, weights, weights, sun glasses, water, tools…….
