The
5th Annual Black Expo is gearing up!
The
Springfield Black Expo Committee has begun preparations for the
5th Annual Black Expo. The Expo will be held September 1st and 2nd
at the Prairie Capital Convention Center, One Convention Center
Plaza, Springfield, Illinois. As always, the Expo is placing emphasis
on promoting pride in the community and will consist of local entertainment,
gospel choirs, a jazz band, fashion show, poetry, and a national
recording artist.
Booth
space is available for a nominal fee of $100.00 per 10x10 space
for each vendor. Fees must be received by June 30, 2007, no exceptions,
and all payments received after June 30, 2007 will be charged a
fee of $150.00. Booth spaces will be placed on the floor plan based
on the date booth space fees were received. Also, we reserve the
right to limit the number of vendors according to the type of product
sold.
There
will be one vendor allowed per booth space with no sub-contracting
within each booth space. If members of the Springfield Black Expo
Committee find that more than one vendor exists within a space,
all vendors within that space will be asked to vacate the premises
along with their merchandise with no refund of vendor fees granted.
Your compliance with this request is greatly appreciated.
