With that being said, there is NO vendor fee. However, event organizers will review vendor applications and will send a follow-up email early of December\/ January or earlier on the status of your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How big are the tables?<\/strong> <br>6ft x 2ft&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How much space do I have around the table?<\/strong> <br>We provide at least 6 x 4 feet of total space for vendors (6 x 2 foot table provided with 2 chairs in this space; 1 foot behind table and 1 foot in front of the table). Depending on our final layout and in accordance with our venue&#8217;s accessibility requirements, we might be able to assign vendors to areas with more space IF they indicate in their application that they will bring a standalone display such as clothing racks, baskets, etc. This is assigned on a first-come basis. We will do our best, but we cannot guarantee being able to provide you with more than 6 x 4 ft of total vending space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do I have to Pay for Parking?<\/strong><br>Parking will be free for vendors via parking code that will be sent in a confirmation email once you are an accepted Vendor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What do I do if I plan to sell food?<\/strong><br>If you plan on selling food, please make sure that you have a WA Food Handler&#8217;s Permit and valid permits\/licenses to be selling food items at this event. Food items should be packaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I have a shared table instead of my own full as I don\u2019t have enough inventory?<\/strong> <br>Absolutely! You are welcome to indicate in the vendor application if you are interested in sharing a table. We either find you another vendor to share with or you can indicate in the form if you already have a vendor table partner to share with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do I need to charge sales tax?<\/strong> <br>Due to <a href=\"https:\/\/dor.wa.gov\/taxes-rates\/retail-sales-tax\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Washington State Retail Sales Tax policies<\/a>, sellers of most tangible items must collect sales tax. Vendors are responsible for their point of sales and transactions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I tried applying and logging into GatherUWB with my old UW credentials, but it\u2019s not working. What do I do?<\/strong> <br>Don&#8217;t try to log into GatherUWB using your old UW credentials (students who have graduated or are no longer enrolled will have had their access removed). Open and complete the application in an incognito browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is Accepted?<\/strong><br>Our aim for the UWB Makers is to uplift entrepreneurial spirit and support handmade and originally designed crafts. We will not accept any AI-generated art, reseller or drop-shipping goods, or any similar mass-produced or third-party items at this time. Any evidence of such practices will result in automatic ineligibility to participate in  UWB Makers Fairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why wasn&#8217;t I accepted as a vendor?<\/strong><br>During our application process, the amount of applications we receive far outnumber the spots available at the<br>fair. Getting on the waitlist is not a rejection, and we work to fill all empty tables as vendors drop out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I leave early?<\/strong><br>No, vendors are required to stay the full duration of the fair. If you can\u2019t be in attendance for the full fair,<br>we suggest you request some backup from trusted friends or family members who can take over the table.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More Questions?
