Once again we are in the midst of putting on our 12th Annual Glass Gallery show. As the show chair, I wanted to welcome you and remind you to start producing lots of beautiful art for this event. LOCATION: Again we will be in Hall C of the Oregon Convention Center sharing with Portland Bead Society, Portland Hand Weavers Guild, Guild of Oregon Woodworkers and Creative Metal Arts Guild. This was a successful event last year and the Chairpeople for all of these guilds have worked hard to continue the quality we started last year. BOOTH FEES: Once again we find that we have had to raise our prices for booth fees. However, it is a $20 increase on booth spaces and $10 on corner booth fees. Things that prompted this increase were the increased Union requirements on OCC which were transferred to renters of the space. Electricity per booth increased and we have agreed to provide outside security for the duration of the show. COMMISSION SCHEDULE: The required commission on total sales is once again dependent upon the hours that you work. This year there will be a cut off date for signing up to do volunteer work. You will need to be in touch with Lesley Kelly prior to April 30th in order to have approved volunteer time counted toward commission fees. Lesley and her husband Kevin will have all the spreadsheets in order before the show as Lesley will not be there herself. So, Kevin has graciously volunteered his time to work the volunteer booth. However, it is your responsibility to get in touch with Lesley/Kevin to tell them what, when or where you will be volunteering. All volunteer time must be pre-arranged before the 30th. Every vendor has the opportunity to determine their own commission rate but it must be in the spreadsheet before the show begins. CREDIT CARDS: OGG will again offer to handle credit card transactions. The $10 “service fee” will be charged. There will be a mandatory meeting on Friday morning at 8:45 to go over the system. The credit card machine will again be in the centrally located Vendor Assistance Booth. Volunteers manning that booth will be the only people to process transactions. LOAD-IN: May 2nd from 3:00pm-8:00pm and May 3rd from 8:00am-8:00pm will be the load in days. You will be given a time frame based upon your selection from the application. When you come up to the loading dock, you must have your ORANGE dock pass in the windshield of your vehicle. Be certain to come to the Vendor Assistance Booth immediately upon entering Hall C to get your required ORANGE name badge and the vendor packet we will have for you. BOOTH SELECTION: Acceptance to the show and the assignment of booths are, for the most part, on a first-come, first-served basis. The Show Chair will try to accommodate everyone’s request for booth size preference. Artists will be placed based upon the type of work they do and in the order in which their completed application was received. With adjustments to Hall C, we have a new floor plan.
