Vendor Program

The Office of Student Leadership and Activities coordinates the vendors who sell items outside the Fens Cafeteria when classes are in session.  Vendors pay a fee of  $40.00 to rent the space. This money is used as additional financial support for Simmons College student organizations. Please note that this fee must be paid regardless of whether or not vendors sell anything on the day of their vending.

Information for Vendors:

 Please check the Fall 2009 calendar below for availability. If you would like to book an available date, call the Office of Student Leadership and Activities at 617-521-2423 on weekdays between 9:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. and ask to be put on the calendar.  Until August 15, 2009, you may only book four dates for the semester to allow all vendors a fair opportunity for booking.  If the calendar is not filled by August 15, you may call back and book additional dates. This website will be updated regularly to reflect any changes or cancellations. 

Once you have a verbal confirmation of your dates, please fill out the vendor policy form; and mail or fax a signed copy to the Office of Student Leadership and Activities to secure your dates for the semester.  By signing the policy form, you agree to follow the rules and regulations of the Simmons College vending program.  Please note that we must receive your policy form no later than one week prior to your first vending date or you will forfeit your scheduled vending dates.

You can return the policy form to:

Please note that because of recent construction, only ONE 6-foot table is available for vendors to use.  The space for vending has decreased considerably, and additional tables will likely not fit in the space.  Please take this into consideration when bringing your goods. You are NOT allowed to use the other tables in the Vending area, as they are reserved for other purposes.  Your tables must fit within the space provided. The designated space is underneath the screen in the Fens Lobby, and goes from the edge of the left wall to the end of the screen. 

Also, please note that we have secured ONE parking space per vendor per day in the parking garage. You can park there for a discounted rate of $12/day payable by Credit or Debit Card upon exiting the garage.  Please note that you will need to retain the white parking ticket you receive when you enter the garage AND pick up a discounted parking voucher from the Office of Student Leadership and Activities.  You will need to pick up this voucher prior to 4:00 p.m. on the date of your vending.  If you do not pick up the voucher or if you lose the parking ticket, you will be responsible for a $50 "lost ticket/unapproved parking" penalty. No exceptions will be made.
