The Weston Creek Uniting Church will hold its annual pre-Christmas Craft Show on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 October 2017.

If you are interested in exhibiting and selling your craft at our Show this year, please return the enclosed application form by 10 October 2017 to:

The Registrar

Weston Creek Uniting Church Craft Show

Weston ACT 2611

We are seeking items for sale in a variety of price ranges to attract the early Christmas gift buyer. Christmas decorations and Christmas fare sell well, as do all manner of craft, wood, and pottery items. Presentation of items is important and goods wrapped in cellophane are preferable to plastic. Secure labelling is required and sticky labels need to be fastened with Sellotape or small safety pins.

It would be appreciated if your prices are to the nearest 10 cents.

We remind all exhibitors of food that they must comply with the Food Safety Standards.

Contact - ANSTAT on 03 9278 1144 for a fact sheet or download from the web site www.foodstandards.gov.au/code/userguide

We will need to know your ABN if you have one, and we will need to know if you are registered for the GST.

The exhibition fee will be $20, including GST, and the commission on sales will be 22%, including GST. If you have an ABN and are registered for the GST, you will be able to claim these amounts as input taxes in your BAS. Your prices, in this case, will also need to include the GST.

If you do not have an ABN, or if you have an ABN but are not registered for the GST, the Parish will still need to charge GST on the exhibition fee and commission. However, you will not be able to claim the GST as input taxes and you must not include GST in your sale prices.

Tax invoices will be issued for the exhibition fee and the sales account, showing the Parish’s ABN and the relevant GST amounts, so that, if you are eligible to claim the tax credits, you will have the necessary supporting paper work.

Further inquiries should be directed to Pam (6296 2276) or Elizabeth (6286 4359)

Extra forms are available from the Parish Centre between the hours of 9am and 12noon, Tuesday – Friday or from our website at www.westoncreekunitingchurch.org.au .

For your convenience an electronic copy of the Schedule of Items for Exhibition is available by email

We are going to cap numbers of exhibitors this year so please return your application early to avoid disappointment.

Yours sincerely

Pam Taylor
