Policies

[ click to expand ! ]

Olympia Punk Rock Flea Market is a safer space, which means that we intend to create a welcoming environment where folks can let their freak flags fly. Participants & attendees should be aware of how their words & actions affect others, & strive towards mutual respect.

Advocates for Youth describes a safe space as:

“A place where anyone can relax & be fully self-expressed, without fear of being made to feel uncomfortable, unwelcome, or unsafe on account of biological sex, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, cultural background, age, or physical or mental ability; a place where the rules guard each person’s self-respect & dignity & strongly encourage everyone to respect others.”

Follow these guidelines to help make Oly PRFM a safer space:

  • Maintain physical distance when you can for COVID safety.
  • Inquire about & respect the physical & emotional boundaries of others.
  • Be responsible & accountable for your words and actions, be aware that intent is not magical.
  • Always get explicit verbal consent before touching anyone or taking anyone’s photo.
  • Respect peoples’ differing opinions, beliefs, points of view and states of being.
  • Just don’t be a jerk, buddy! It ain’t hard.

    The following stuff is prohibited and will not be tolerated:

    - Racism, sexism, homophobia, classism, ableism, transphobia, queerphobia, fatphobia. ageism, sizeism, religious intolerance & all other forms of discrimination.
    - Sexual harassment, inappropriate/unwelcome comments/behaviors.
    - Disrespectful or disruptive behavior.
    - Theft of money or wares.
    - Physical, verbal, emotional abuse or intimidation.
    - Causing a participant or attendee to feel distressed or unsafe.

    Content of participants of Oly PRFM is not pre-screened or censored prior to the event, nor can we promise to preemptively mute any oppressive or problematic behaviors by participants or attendees. If you see something, say something! If you find someone is selling something oppressive/problematic, if you witness/experience prohibited language/behaviors, or are made to feel unsafe, please reach out to an organizer & we will collaborate on a solution with you.

    Oly PRFM reserves the right to ask anyone in violation of the safer space policy to reconcile their behavior or leave. Thank you for your support & assistance in making Oly PRFM a safer space.
  • We love first timers! You don't have to be a seasoned pro to vend with us.

    We don’t pre-screen tablers wares, but we reserve the right to refund & revoke your spot if you’re selling fascist/oppressive/otherwise problematic shit.

    Keep it cheap! The majority of your stuff should be under $50. We wanna provide an opportunity for folks who sell inexpensive items and are unable to afford vending at more expensive markets.

    Maintaining ample walkway space for people with mobility aids is important to us. Your table setup is expected to fit in the confines of the space provided, if elements of your setup spill into walkways, you will be asked to rearrange.

    Refunds will be granted so long as you cancel 3 days prior to the event.

    All tablers must agree to follow our Safer Space policy & Covid precautions.

    All vendors & attendees are required to wear a high quality, well-fitting respirator (KN95 or bN95) while inside the space unless taking a quick drink or bite of a snack. No cloth or surgical masks please.

    No one is permitted entry without a mask, free masks will be available at the door while supplies last. If you test positive, are experiencing symptoms, or have been knowingly exposed to covid in the last 10 days, please STAY HOME!!! Refunds will be granted so long as you cancel 3 days prior to the event.

    OlyFans will be cleaning the air indoors at the event! :)

    Ethos

    An affordable, sporadic flea market for and by weirdos. Always masks required, always ADA accessible. A portion of spaces are always free for BIPOC.

    Some craft fairs have steep table fees that are out of reach for people who sell inexpensive odds & ends. We wanna provide a financially accessible opportunity for folks to sell or trade their wares. We try to keep vendor fees around $20. We don't make any profit off vendor fees, any little extra we happen to get goes towards buying masks and paying the rental fee for the next market.

    We love beginners! If you've never tabled a market before, this is a great place to start.

    We aim to prioritize BIPOC vendors! Around a quarter of the available spaces are offered free of charge to BIPOC on a first come, first served basis.

    Our markets are always ADA accessible, and masks are always required. We partner with Clean Air Oly to purify the air at our events.

    We have a Safer Space Policy because we're a couple of theys who wanna foster a welcoming environment where marginalized folks can let their freak flags fly.
