Craft Fair Opportunity
Hello
I would like to let you know about an exciting opportunity to promote your work at a unique Craft Fair in Dorking on the weekend of 28 and 29 July 2012.
As part of the London 2012 Olympics, the cycling road race passes through Dorking on 28 and 29 July. Official estimates predict over 20,000 visitors to the town at that time.
Dorking Halls is on the route of the road race and is planning to make use of this unique opportunity to arrange a Craft Fair showcasing some of the best contemporary craftspeople. To make this event as accessible as possible we will not be charging any admission for visitors.
The road race brings with it some logistical issues, in that the road past the venue will be closed for much of Saturday 28 and Sunday 29th. Stall holders will set up on Friday 27 July and can dismantle either on Sunday evening or on the Monday morning. Overnight security will be provided each night so stall can be left set up for the duration. More information is on the attached sheet.
I have attached an Application Form and some information for your consideration. If you are interested in taking a stand, you will need to return the Application Form to me by 20th April. After that there will be a selection process and we will then contact you to let you know if we can offer you a space and ask you to complete an Acceptance Form.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, though I am on leave from 12-16 March. If you need to speak to someone before then you can call Stuart Cole on (01306) 879314.
I look forward to hearing from you,
Yours sincerely,
Keith Garrow,
General Manager,
Dorking Halls.
