Application Time for the Pumpkin Festival

The festival is now accepting applications and the ladies of the Etsy Labs are excited to see what your entries this year will be! But you best hurry since the application deadline for this year’s event must be postmarked by Friday August 10th, 2007. Acceptance letters will be mailed out the 31st of August, 2007.

The Centerville Pumpkin festival is a Fall, pumpkin, and Halloween themed event that is filled with fun for all walks of life including adults, children, and families. The Pumpkin Festival is an all-day event, outdoors, free to attend, offers fine art, crafts, and produce for sale. This year it will last from 10am-4pm and is located just outside of Richmond, VA.

This year’s festival will be specially featuring the website Etsy.com, your place to buy and sell all things handmade, and is offering a special discounted booth fee specifically for Etsy sellers that apply to vend at the event!

Not in the area or can’t apply? We are also looking for promos and samples to include in the 200 pumpkin swag bags that will be given out to the first 200 people that come to the event, any amount you can provide would be more than helpful! We are also looking for volunteers to help during the Festival hours.

For more information about applying, promos, and or volunteering at the Pumpkin festival, please send an email to Mary@etsy.com and visit our website and myspace pages: http://centervillepumpkinfestival.blogspot.com and http://myspace.com/centervillepumpkinfest

Hope we’ll see you there!
