EAF is meant to reflect the Edgewater community at its best. Each Artist is required to empty garbage and recyclables appropriately in the provided dumpsters. Artist space must be kept clean and free of debris. An EAF staff member will periodically monitor and review the space for cleanliness.

Violators will be fined a minimum of $100 for non-compliance. • It is advised that all Artists have a plan for safe handling of money (i.e. the periodic removal of cash from the area and a secure method for maintaining cash on site). Some City events have reported thefts from Artists. Please plan accordingly.
