Nonprofit organizations

Space is limited at our market. A group requesting free space must be a non-profit organization offering education or information about market-related or community services. Accepted organizations must:

1. Apply. Please complete a Vendor Application and submit to Julie Whitehorn, QAFMA Chair. If approved, you will be scheduled or placed on our waitlist.

2. Obtain authorization PRIOR to attending the market. The QAFMA Chair reserves the right to deny space for any reason she deems appropriate. You can view our schedule at www.qafma.org/events. Note that for safety reasons, all booths must be set up by 3 pm, and taken down after 7 pm, with rare exceptions.

3. Bring your own stuff: canopy, canopy weights, table, chairs, and weather protection. No microphones are permitted.

4. Limit the litter. We ask that organizations design participatory games, quizzes, or other interactive educational elements to bolster education and help eliminate litter. This should be the requesting organization’s main focus in the booth with the passing out of literature a secondary option. Those who offer creative interactive relations will gain favorability in the selection process.

5. Provide one or two volunteers to help setup and tear-down of the market on participating days. Those who wish to not participate in setup and tear-down may have the option of contributing $30 toward this effort instead.

6. Look for reciprocity. Priority will be given to market sponsors and Queen Anne groups.

7. Follow the rules. Community-space groups are subject to all Market Rules, unless otherwise specified.
