Vendors cannot sell their space. You must apply to the show management and be approved by them.

For future reference, who is the management and how do we contact them?

That sounds good on paper but there are always empty tables at every craft show that we have attended. There are no refunds on your $20 table deposit so I am just offering an alternative for people who find that they will not be able to participate in the show.

However it’s not how the rules work. Out of all the craft shows run by TV, for the last 10 years or so only a handful of tables have not shown. When this happens, the table is removed. So empty spot is noticed.
Once a lady had to leave due to emergency at home, neighbor came took over.

One has to be picked in lottery, then vetted by the committee. You may bring a resident to help, but you can’t sell your spot. If you can’t attend, there is a waitlist. My neighbor was called the night before a craft show, to offer a table.

So definitely rules, about emergency issues. If you chose to “sell” a table like you are asking. Original resident may be banned from future craft shows, as will the person illegally buying their table.

It is run twice a year by the Villages Rec Dept. Announcement is in the Thursday rec news, and online. You submit an application, and they randomly draw 300 names who get a table.
