Ark Heritage Terms of Business
1. The agreed participation fee is due in full before the commencement of the pop-up event. The fee amount is stipulated per location and will vary depending on the chosen operational model (e.g., vendor-managed presence or full management by Ark Heritage).
You are responsible for setting up and taking down your display on the designated days, including the labelling of all your products and completing logs while working in the shop.
​
2. The Artist / Exhibitor signs this agreement and agrees to pay the relevant entry fee by the requested date shown on the invoice and cancels this agreement in writing 14 days after signing the Terms of Business, but no later than 14 days before opening. After this date, we are unable to issue any refund.
​

​
5. The space provided is one space only, that might be a table that is 140 cm x 70 cm or a shelf unit that is 70cm x 154cm x 36cm, + surrounding wall space if available and needed. However, this may be different for each location. If you wish to bring your own furniture/ equipment, this must be agreed by the organisers before setting up.
