NOV SHOWCASE VENDOR APPLICATION DEADLINES
Just a reminder that THIS ONE YEAR we will do a drawing for the
initial batch of vendors for the new November 13-15, 2009 annual
event.
IMPORTANT: Between April 1 and April 15 please visit the vendor
page at http://www.bellydanceshowcase.com/novvendors.html and
send us an email saying if you DO want to be in the lottery for
a space.
The email link will give us the correct header to go to the
correct file, so please use it. If you have already sent a random
note about this please understand it has not been tagged
correctly and may not make it/have made it into the file.
We will draw the first year vendors on April 15 and notify you
as soon as possible.
If you are NOT drawn and still want to participate, please send
in an application on the “New Vendor Registration” date.
The April event and the November event are two different events.
Being a returning vendor or one event does not affect whether
you are a returning vendor for the other event. You are NOT
required to participate in both to protect your spot in one.
