More about the festival:
The Meriwether Lewis Memorial Eisteddfod Foundation organizes the West Coast Eisteddfod, a modern eisteddfod for the west coast of North America. The MLMEF is partnering with AmeriCymru and a Raven Above Press to bring you the 2011 West Coast Eisteddfod: Welsh Festival of Arts, which encompasses art competitions, film festival, outdoor marketplace and much more.
The 2011 West Coast Eisteddfod: Welsh Festival of Arts will include open competitions in poetry, voice, comedy, performance art, and storytelling. The festival will accompany a free outdoor marketplace, an art show, film screenings, lecture, our first annual Welsh leadership competition, Welsh games, food and drink. In addition, A Raven Above Press will develop and produce a book of artwork by presenters in the art show focusing on Welsh mythology and legend.
The West Coast Eisteddfod celebrates Welsh and Welsh American traditions in art, history, language, and oral and literary competition. We will hold an election of our first annual young adult representative and pay tribute to Welsh entrepreneurs and Welsh Americans. The expected attendance is 2,500 through the course of three days and will be open to the public.
The festival is to celebrate Welsh identity and expression. In doing so, it fosters positive self-esteem and creativity for the benefit of the greater community. The public will be encouraged to participate in these classes and competitions displayed in the Welsh tradition. Welsh Americans will benefit from learning about their culture through ongoing workshops and activities. The designated young adult representative will be evaluated on personality, talent, and community leadership. The appointed person will therein represent the West Coast Eisteddfod in the United States for one year as an upstanding role model, assisting in addressing issues important to the community and will help promote a meaningful association with Wales.

Will you have a booth that can be shared by various Welsh organizations--where they can set out membership and other info? And possibly sell trinkets? I imagine several organizations would like to have things there, but will not be able to muster enough people to staff a booth the entire time--if they shared a space, they could share the work and fee. Thanks.
