Open Calls

Serendipity Arts Foundation will provide: 

As a standard, each participant will be equipped with:

• A 6×6 ft stall space
• 1 table
• 2 chairs
• 1 table fan
• 1 dustbin
• 1 easel

Additionally, participants will have the option to choose between a clothing rail or a shelf, depending on the nature of their products. This flexibility allows vendors to optimize their display space according to their specific needs.

Selected Participants will provide:

• A fee of 15,000 INR per day for 8 days (taxes extra), totalling 120,000 INR for the entire duration of the festival.
• This fee secures the 6×6 ft space within the Mercado area at the art park.
• Participants are responsible for their own stall decoration, ensuring their space reflects their brand and products effectively.
• Transportation of products to and from the venue is the responsibility of the participant.
• Participants must arrange for secure storage of their products during non-operational hours.
• Lodging and boarding in Goa for the duration of the event must be arranged and funded by the participants themselves.
• Any additional furniture requirements beyond the standard provided items will incur extra charges.
• If participants require volunteer assistance, this will also be subject to additional fees.

Important considerations for participants:

1. Space Utilization: The 6×6 ft stall space offers ample room for creative displays. Participants should plan their layout carefully to maximize visibility and accessibility of their products.
2. Branding: While decorating their stalls, participants should focus on creating a cohesive brand image that aligns with their products and attracts potential customers.
3. Logistics: Given that participants are responsible for transportation and storage, they should consider efficient packing methods and potentially collaborate with local logistics providers in Goa.
4. Budgeting: Participants should factor in all costs, including the daily fee, decoration, transportation, accommodation, and any additional services they might need.
5. Staffing: Decide whether to manage the stall personally or hire local help, considering the additional costs involved.
6. Product Mix: Carefully curate the products to be displayed, ensuring a diverse yet cohesive range that appeals to the festival’s audience.
7. Local Regulations: Familiarize themselves with any local regulations or restrictions regarding product sales in Goa.
