Gift Gallery partners with vendors and artisans who offer upscale and unique gift items.  We make a conscious effort to offer our shoppers a wide range of products for the home, self and gifts at various price points.  The diversity of products our vendors sell is carefully considered to prevent excess cross-over and duplication in our shopping categories. 

Many vendors return to our show year in and year out by popular demand.  However, every year we also add new vendors to freshen up the environment and expand the mix.  A completed new vendor application and product samples or photos are part of the new vendor evaluation.

The percentage of returning vendors to new vendors changes every year based on variables such as sales totals, customer demand and seniority.  This year (2010) we will feature 45 vendors and two shopping levels. 

Each vendor contributes 20% of their Gift Gallery sales to benefit the local children’s charities which our event supports.   The donation amount is based on gross sales (including tax).  We also invite each vendor to donate an item to be used at our raffle table which generates additional funds for our beneficiaries.  All vendors must charge and pay sales tax for the state of Kansas.  All donations are tax deductible.

Booth spaces in 2010 will measure approximately 9’ (deep) x 12’ (wide).  Spaces for our vendors are randomly chosen by the Gift Gallery Co-Chairs.  Special consideration can be given for largescale items and electricity requirements.  Vendors should bring their own tables, displays and merchandising accessories including signage.  Shoppers are provided with programs featuring the event's layout.
