Vendors Sought for 10/17 Green Home Expo

Saturday, October 17th, from 10am to 4pm at the Merchandise Mart

Chicago's Department of Community Development is collaborating with the Historic Chicago Bungalow Association in the 2009 Chicago Bungalow and Green Home Expo. This is Chicago's largest and most popular home restoration, preservation and energy-efficient renovation expo. Last year's Expo drew nearly 10,000 bungalow and "green" home enthusiasts.

Vendors whose products and services will benefit homeowners or potential homebuyers are needed. Attendees at the annual event look for products and expertise on everything from energy-efficient appliances to rehabbing woodwork. Companies using, promoting, or selling environmentally friendly and sustainable products and services will complement an exciting array of vendors specializing in bungalows and historic preservation and rehabilitation.

The exhibitor's fee for the Expo is $250 for individual craftspeople and $800 for business enterprises (of more than 5 employees). Non-profit organizations are free of charge.

To register, please complete the online Participation Form. Registration deadline: Friday, Sep 4th. If you have questions, please call Xochitl, Assistant Commissioner, Dept. of Community Development at (312) 744-0496.
