Want to be a vendor?

Kadampa Meditation Center and the World Peace Temple in Glen Spey, NY is extending an invitation to your business to participate in our 14th Annual Fun Fair on Saturday, July 6th, 2024 as a business vendor. The Fun Fair is a day of free entertainment and activities for the general public including live music, kids’ games and activities, guided meditations and temple tours, food, and more.

Our marketing team promotes this event within a 100-mile radius and attracts over 900 people from the Tri-State area, including 5,000 postcards and many posters, 6,500 newsletter subscribers, 12,000 Facebook fans, and more.

Activities at our fair appeal to people of all ages and of a variety of backgrounds, with a large emphasis on children and families. Fair-goers tend to spend the entire day perusing the grounds and the various vendor booths onsite. This is a great opportunity to promote your products and services by gaining visibility in our community.

Vendor booths start at 10′ x 10′ space: $15 before June 17, $25 after and 10′ x 20′ space: $30 before June 17, $40 after. All proceeds raised from the Fun Fair go directly to the International Temple Project, which helps build more meditation and World Peace Temples throughout the world with the goal of helping people find more peace and happiness in their lives.
