Deadline: midday Friday 20 March
Fair dates: 6 to 7 June

The popular maker fairs continue with Towner’s first ever Print Fair. Applications are welcomed from emerging and established UK-based artists, designers, and illustrators working in all formats; screen print, etching, monoprint, giclee, risograph, lithograph, collagraph, linocut, letterpress and other print media. We encourage a range of price points to suit all budgets.

Please note that a submission of interest does not guarantee a stall. To ensure that we are supporting a broad range of independent makers, there will be a selection process. You will be contacted by 26 March with the result of your application.

Please make sure you read our FAQs carefully. Should you have any other questions, get in touch by emailing Towner towner@townereastbourne.org.uk

Pitch
We will provide a 5ft x 2ft trestle table and a chair, but please bring tablecloths and any additional decorations required. If you do not need a trestle table but instead have your own construction/display board, please include an image and dimensions. The space will be lit for ambience only, please bring your own lighting if you have a specific preference for how your products are lit. You will be given access to 1 x 13 amp socket.

The fee for the weekend is £150. Towner does not take commissions on sales.  

Payment
If you are selected, you will be asked to pay a 50% deposit in advance to secure your place. The remaining amount will be requested a few weeks prior to the event.
