Artists are encouraged and invited to hold an Artist Workshop during the Winter Arts Faire. The Artist Workshop will be a scheduled event that attendees can sign up for in advance. They should be between 30 min and 2 hours long. You may demonstrate a specific technique or teach a small class! These questions are not required and answering yes or no does not affect the outcome of the Selection Process.

If selected to participate in the The Winter Arts Faire you will have to follow the Set-Up Information for Booth Holders:

Spaces are 10x10 or 8x10

The Artists are required to bring tables, chairs, and table clothes for a unique display of their art.

Set up is Friday, November 24th, from 12:00 pm - 4:55 pm. Doors open for Opening Gala Reception on Friday, November 24h at 5:00 pm. Please note, that booths remain set up through Sunday, November 26th, at 3:30 pm!!!! The Armory doors will be locked each night and an evening breakdown of your booth is not necessary. 

Winter Arts Faire Schedule for the Public:

Friday, November 24, 5:00 - 8:00 pm
Saturday, November 25, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
Sunday, November 26, 10:00 - 3:30 pm 

I understand there are no tables, table cloths, or chairs available.
I will bring everything I need for my Booth.
I will be set up and ready to sell on time all 3 days.
I will stay open for the ENTIRE duration of the Winter Arts Faire, and I am committed to ALL 3 days!!!
I realize that closing my booth early or leaving early jeopardizes the whole event.
If I sell out of my wares I will keep my booth open. I can network, offer business cards, sell gift certificates, or take orders.
If I am sick, or weather prevents me from attending any of the days I realize it is my responsibility to staff my booth, and keep the Arts Council informed.

Breakdown Information:

The breakdown is Sunday, November 26th, from 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm. It is each vendor's responsibility to clean their own space. Please leave your area as you found it. 

It is not permissible to begin the breakdown process before the Winter Arts Faire ends at 3:30 pm on Sunday, November 26th. If you sell out of your wares, Congratulations!!! Your booth must remain open. Vendors in years past have used this time to network, share business cards, sell gift certificates, display photo albums, and take orders. We appreciate your cooperation and encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity and celebrate your success and network with attendees. 

I agree to the above statement
I will have fun and enjoy the spirit of the event!!!

Ketchikan Area Arts and Humanities Council holds an annual raffle to fundraise for support of the organization's programs and events, like the Annual Winter Arts Faire, Artist Professional Development classes, and the Wearable Art Show!!! Each raffle ticket is accompanied by a handmade envelope containing a variety of things including tiny art pieces, jewelry, coupons, gift cards, poems, recipes, art supplies, and more. That way every raffle ticket is a winner!!!

I would like to donate a gift certificate or a small item to the Arts Council's Annual Raffle Envelopes.

Force Majeure: 

If for any reason, present or future statute, laws, ordinance, regulation, order, judgment or decree; earthquake; flood; fire; pandemic, epidemic, or disease; accident; explosion; any inability without fault on KAAHC's part to sufficiently hold the Winter Arts Faire, KAAHC may terminate registration without any liability for any damages arising from such termination. 

In addition to the above circumstances, should any event displace the organization or render the organization unable to host the Winter Arts Faire, KAAHC shall not be under any obligation to present it at a different time. 

I understand the Arts and Humanities Council has the right and obligation to cancel the Winter Arts Faire for the Safety of the Community.
