"A feast of contemporary Indigenous Music and Culture"
The Indigenous Resurgence Project has been a long standing partner for 2 Rivers Remix and their annual Interior moveable feast tour.
​
Hosting the Resurgence Markets, we help organize and coordinate the non-musician talent for the festival, assist with finding volunteers, and make sure that the vendors have what they need.
Upcoming Season
Stay tuned for more information about the 2 Rivers Remix Moveable Feasts
Vendor conduct
1. There is ZERO tolerance for verbal or physical abuse towards volunteers, staff, or fellow market vendors. Anyone who violates this will be removed from the market without refund of their vendor fee and not accepted at future markets. Please, be kind to each other.
​
2. The purpose of the Indigenous Resurgence Project is to encourage and support local Indigenous artists, crafters, and businesses within Interior BC, showcasing their work to the greater public.
-
Vendors, artists, and crafters must have a minimum 70% of their booth or table be work that they have made or had a hand in making or designing.
-
Third-party sellers, chain businesses, and/or selling representatives for national corporations or store-fronts will not be permitted a vending space.
-
Sellers residing within the Southern Interior BC region will be given priority before vendors from other regions of BC.
​
3. It is the responsibility of the vendor to ensure their table and products remain secure throughout the duration of the event by whichever necessary means.
-
The Indigenous Resurgence Project staff and all event partners will take no responsibility for lost or stolen products.
-
Any additional material, equipment, or resources needed to display their crafts will fall to the responsibility of the vendor.
4. The vendor is expected to clear their booth at the end of the day and to not leave any garbage or litter on or around the vending space. Failure to do so may result in not being accepted in future markets.
5. This is an OUTDOOR MARKET. There is NO GUARANTEE of access to power, tables, chairs, or other equipment one may find at other market venues.
-
Vendors will be responsible to bring their own equipment (tables, chairs,canopies, displays, etc).
-
Please consider the weather and bring equipment and dress to accommodate the outdoor environment.
6. IRP Event Staff will only be available from the time set-up begins to the times listed in the event calendar above.
-
The festival will most likely run late into the night, and vendors are welcome to stay beyond the specified times that IRP staff will be present.
-
HOWEVER, IRP staff and the IRP arts collective will NOT take responsibility for the operation and organization of vendors or the issues that may arise after the specified end-time listed in the events calendar.
​
7. Selling food on the premises:
-
