Registration is open to all OPA members

in good standing.

We will have a waitlist when registration is full.


Open since 1987, Cornell Farm is a large full service nursery and cafe, easy to get to on the west side of PDX with plenty of customer parking.


They will help us promote our event via their website, email list,

social media sites and regular customers.


Registration is first come, first served on the OPA website.

You may sell any original work created by you from ceramic clay.

Any mixed media work must be predominantly made of clay.

No seconds or discounted artwork allowed.

All art must be priced appropriately.

Artists must setup and be ready to sell by the beginning of the event. There is no packing up or leaving early.


Cost of this event per space:

$50 to OPA + 10% of sales to the nursery.

10% of each artist's sale will be paid at the end of the day on Sunday. An OPA member will get information from each artist to calculate total sales, collect the 10% fee, and provide a receipt for the payment.


We will be inside two of their large greenhouses.

There are 44 spaces available 10' wide x 6' deep.

You are welcome to share your space with another member,

but include their name & email contact when you register

so all participants are being promoted.


Participants need their own indoor display set up, point of sale system & wrap materials.


The greenhouse is high ceilinged, has a landscape fabric covered floor, and will protect us from rain. There's good ventilation!

 

Set up will start Thursday afternoon (Oct. 3rd) at 3 pm and continue Friday morning (Oct. 4th) at 8 am


When you register you will pay a $50 non-refundable fee and submit 3 high quality images of your current work for use in promotion.

Please do not submit more than 3 photos of your work.

We are also asking also for 2 photos

of you making your work.

These photos will be used for social media and can be easily taken with your phone. This can be you in any phase of making your work - throwing, carving, glazing, firing, unloading your kiln, etc. 


All participants need to help promote the event through their

personal social media accounts, distributing postcards

and emailing their customer email list.


Load in and load out will occur next to the greenhouse. You may pull your vehicle up to the greenhouse. When you have taken all of your display and artwork out of your vehicle, please move it so that others can pull up to the greenhouse. 


If you have any questions

or need assistance,

DO NOT CONTACT THE NURSERY.
