Only items in the photos will be permitted (doesn’t have to be the exact item, for instance, if you mod out a bubble blowing gun, the photo of one represents all of them, but you cannot then mod out a personal battery operated fan that doesn’t blow bubbles and sell it unless you include a photo of the fan).

HELLO POTENTIAL VENDORS!
I am the vendor liaison for Octopodicon. Once you have filled out the above form, please send it to me at octovendor@oksteam.org
Thank you!

Question:
Does: “you cannot be too detailed and specific” mean “one is not allowed to be too detailed or specific”
Or does it mean:
“There is no possible way that we will think you are giving us too much info so please write as specifically and in as much detail as possible about your wares”??? I am assuming it is the later that you meant but I am just making sure, as it is phrased in a rather obscure way.
This is best addressed by our Mercantile Mistress. You may email her at octovendor@oksteam.org or I can alert her to your question. Thank you.
Hi, I was approached the other day at Basket Market in OKC by a woman who handed me the flyer. We talked and she had seen my work at Bad Granny’s in OKC, and thought it would be good for the show. I specialize in skulls–masks, paintings, notecards, jewelry, etc. Most of my art is OOAK, but I have some prints.I also am a tarot reader if that would be allowed. My email is currently on the fritz, and I don’t have access to a printer either. How am I to fill out an application and send it? I do have pictures of my booth both at a show and at Bad Granny’s on my Iphone. Are you local where we could meet? I have been in numerous shows over the years, but this one would be new to me. My phone number is 405-354-8012. My cell/texting number is 405-550-2386. My apologies for the techno difficulties. I really do want to be considered for the show. Thank you!

I think I know you. We are in OKC. We could meet at Bad Granny’s and I could give you the forms. They are here on the site to print but if you are having computer issues, that’s not an option. I don’t live far from Bad Granny’s so getting there isn’t an issue – I drive right past it on the way home from work around 5:00 pm most days. Just tell me which day you can be there, and I’ll bring hte forms with me.
