Holiday Mart is a juried show ……..what does that mean?
A “juried show” is considered to be more prestigious than an open show because it is selective. In a juried show, a judge or jury, accepts or declines exhibitors based on the theme of the show and criteria set forth by the juror. In the case of the Junior League of Denver, members of the Holiday Mart Committee review potential merchants and their products—evaluating the quality, price point, similar products already accepted and overall “fit” for JLD’s Holiday Mart. As a group, these committee members determine which merchants will be accepted into the show (“Yes”), which will be denied entry to the current year’s show (“No”), and which will be offered the opportunity to “Waitlist”.
