Patuxent River Appreciation Days ARTS & CRAFTS

Dear Exhibitors:

We look forward to the 32nd Annual Patuxent River Appreciation Days (P.R.A.D.) The dates are October 9 and 10, 2010 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. As you know, The Calvert Marine Museum hosts a large number of family events during this festival. We hope that you will join us for this celebration.

Again, the 2010 PRAD show activities and events will be held on the fenced and enclosed Calvert Marine Museum grounds and parking area. All vendors will be located in the museum parking lot. Once you have registered, you will be assigned a specific site. All participants in the Arts and Crafts Show must show proof of general liability.

The Art and Craft Show Booth area will be $100 for a 15’ x 15’ space. A committee from the Calvert Artists’ Guild will judge the booths once they are set up and offer a “Best of Show Award”, which is free registration for PRAD 2011.  Spaces are assigned on a first come, first served basis with previous year exhibitor’s first priority.

Artists are responsible for providing their own setup requirements including tables and chairs. Electricity is not available. Artists or their representatives are expected to remain during the entire show, which concludes at 5 p.m. on Sunday.

All new vendor Art and Craftwork will be juried to ensure appropriateness and quality. (Prior exhibitors with current work on file need not be juried again.) If you have not been priviously jured, please send 3 slides or photos of objects for sale and 1 slide or photo of your booth set-up; also include a self- addressed, stamped envelope if items are to be returned.

The application deadline is September 1, 2010. At the time you submit your application, a deposit fee of $50 is required. If you are not accepted, your fee will be returned. Once you are accepted, this fee is not refundable. Your remaining balance will be due by September 24th.
