-Vendor spaces: 4 to 6’ table – $40
**Masks will be required for everyone in the space, including vendors, volunteers and patrons, regardless of vaccination status. There is outdoor access in the back if you need to take a mask-break! We will also be enforcing capacity by counting visitors at the door. This is to ensure the space does not get over-crowded and we can keep a safe social distance as much as possible. Folks will be asked to wait outside or come back if we are at capacity. We encourage you to keep a hand sanitizer at your table and use it often. Wrong Brain will continue to keep an eye on COVID rates in our state and if we feel it is unsafe to continue having an indoor event, we will cancel and refund your vendor fees. **
