Presenter Application Form

The 2019 Not So Simple Living Fair will be held July 26 – 28, 2019.

If you are interested in being a  presenter, please fill out the form below.

|  APPLICATIONS DUE BY JUNE 1st, 2019  |

Presenters are welcome to sell their wares during or after their presentations. There will not be a marketplace at this year’s event.

In order to keep the Not So Simple Living Fair very affordable for anyone who wants to learn about sustainable living skills, all of the organizers and presenters volunteer their time. The Fair provides presenters with free camping, meals, a delicious potluck supper and music Saturday night and a wonderful venue to teach their skills and meet other people who share their interests.

Please tell us a little about yourself, as it relates to your presentation, in the Bio section. Describe your workshop in the workshop section: What will participants expect to learn? What will you do? What will they do, if it’s hands on? Note, many of the most popular workshops involve the participants. Think about ways to make it interactive, if possible. Only workshops that align closely with our mission will be accepted.

If you were a presenter last year and would like us to use information you provided in past years, example: enter “Use my 2017 info” in the appropriate field. If you want us to use the same photo, say so in the “Other” field.   Here is a link to the 2017 List of Presenters.

Please read carefully: This form cannot be saved and finished later. If you need more time (or are presenting multiple workshops), please write your answers in a separate text document and copy and paste into the form. Fill out a separate form for each workshop.
