Full 8' indoor table - $75
Half indoor table - $40

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and priority will be given to queer vendors and authors. A portion of the vendor fees will be donated to Affirmations LGBTQ+ Community Center and the American Library Association's Rainbow Roundtable. The rest of the fees will be used to offset administrative, logistical, and marketing costs. Marketing will include (but is not limited to) extensive social media advertising (including paid advertising) as well as road signage, but authors and vendors are strongly encouraged to market the event themselves as well. Authors and vendors are encouraged to donate a book/item to a grab bag for a fundraiser raffle.
