Sycamore Banquet Center at Indiana State University Terre Haute

Scape Designer Requirements:

The designers will setup their 60" round 30" tall, minimum requirement of 4 place settings, Scape Thursday May 15 (between the hours of 10:00 AM and 7:00 PM). My recommendation is to always start early. That way if you need additional items, you have time to purchase and add them.

Friday May 16 is Celebration of Design-Cocktail Party. Each Scape is awarded 1 ticket for a designer to attend this fabulous fun filled evening. Mix and mingle, enjoy spirits, music and hors d'oeuvres and enjoy time with the judges between 5-6:00 pm before the public arrives! Please provide the name of the designer that will be attending Celebration of Design-Cocktail Party to stacey@arttotality.org by Monday May 12th. Additional tickets for Celebration of Design-Cocktail Party are $25.00 per ticket as well as tickets for the Dinner, $85.00 can be purchased during the designer meeting. You can purchase these online from your phone or using the computer will will have at the designer meeting.

Lastly is the tear down of the Scapes. The designer can do this anytime between the hours of 10:00 am and 1:00 pm, Sunday May 18th. If you attend Dinner at the Scapes Saturday May 17th, then you have the opportunity to tear your Scape down at the conclusion of the evening.

Things to remember...

Chairs are not being used at the designed Scapes. This will allow us to save space for dinners to be at none designed tables.
The only area that will need to be designed is the top 60" round surface of your table. We can not have any area around the table taken due to limited space for the dinner tables that are separate from your Scapes this year.
Designer Pantry is here. Please reach out to Sandy Mutchler if you would like to borrow something from the pantry for your scape.

The decoration policy is as follows: No granular substances. No glitter. No adhering anything to walls. No open flame. No items around your Scape.

We look forward to the best year yet!

Art Scavenger Hunt:

As a designer, you do not need to do a thing. It is a playful way to encourage guests to take a closer look at the Scapes.

On each designer’s table...
