May 12th, 2009

Calling all Artists and Crafts People!!!!

ABCO Art Space is holding it’s second Craft Fair Saturday, June 6th.

We are looking for interested Vendors to participate in this event.  Table space is limited and will be available on a first come, first serve basis. The table fee is $25 for up to 5′ linear feet of table, and $5 per foot if more than 5′ are required.

Vendor’s keep all proceeds from the sale of their goods

(excluding the sale of Food and Beverage with a percentage of the sale of these goods to be negotiated with ABCO before the time of the event) – all proceeds from this event go to pay for the cost of the event and to support ABCO

This event will take place on Saturday, June 6th between 12 noon and 6 pm with great possibility to extend into the early evening (9:30 ish) if their is interest in doing so. Please let me know if this is something you would want. We are also looking for musicians that may want to play during this event. We are looking for musicians and performers

that would suit well for a craft fair. Jazz, folk, jug band, etc… Basically, something that does not need to take center stage

but will rather blend with all the activity and artists selling their wares.

clothing, jewelery, art, food, beverage, and pretty much any hand made good is acceptable

There will be off street parking available directly across the street in a church parking lot. This is good news as we can offer this to people interested in coming from distances that require a drive so that people will not have to worry about their cars while they shop.

As I receive submissions I will include everyone in the plan and provide promotional materials so that we all ensure ourselves a well attended event.

In your response, please include:

Name, contact info, Company name, brief description of your wares, requirements (ie. table size, electricity, etc…)

and the best time to contact you.

This event will fill up, so please reserve your table early.

Payment methods will include, cash, check, or via pay pal.

11th Chillin' Anniversary show at Mezzanine June 13, 2009.

May 7th, 2009

  Chillin’ will feature: 80 fashion designers, 180 painters and photographers, 2 live painters, video installations and a bunch of great DJ’s. Show is from 8:00pm-2:00am.

 

Our Mezzanine shows are really special and we only 2 a year. We normally have an attendance of about 2000 people.

 

Our shows have been free for designers to vend for 11 years and our goal is not only for designers to make money but also get exposure in the press and make connections with boutiques and buyers in the Bay Area. My goal is to support the local art and fashion community here and keep SF a unique place.

 

No charge designers to vend but I do have some expectations and if those do not work for you we are not the show for you.

 

In order for you to do the show this is what I truly expect from you:

 

1. If you are doing another show that same day you can NOT do my show.

 

2. I expect ALL designers to get flyers from me

 

3. expect designers to post the event in their websites.

 

4. send an email blast about the show

 

5. post to facebook, myspace, yelp, going, etc.,

 

If you are Not willing to do this this is not the show for you.

 

Anyway, I am so excited about this show! If you are interested in the show

email me fast as at times I get booked in less than an hour.

 

If you have any questions feel free to call me.

 

Best
