BOISE 150 is a City program led by the Department of Arts &
History to commemorate Boise's sesquicentennial with signature
events, projects, and promotions throughout 2013. Residents,
businesses, and organizations are all encouraged to take advantage
of this unique opportunity to contemplate the city's past, present,
and future through projects and historical research that elicit
conversation about our city.
As a valued local business, we invite you to create one item and
label it as a BOISE 150 commemorative product. The product
should reflect what you feel represents the spirit of Boise.
This is a unique and local approach to offering commemorative
merchandise.
REQUIREMENTS: All
approved businesses will be included in promotional campaigns
including the BOISE 150 website, newsletter, social media and other
media opportunities.
- Applicants must be a registered business with the State of
Idaho and have operations and/or distribution in the City of
Boise.
- Products must be relevant to the themes illustrated by the
BOISE 150 program (see www.boise150.com for theme

Merchandise (limited edition posters and notecards, buttons/ pins,
Boise related book, Boise related music cd- see Holly Funk, Merchant
Program Specialist for details.)
- Participants are responsible for the sales and distribution of
the commemorative product throughout the duration of the program
(January 2013 - December 2013)
- Participants must be willing to share product sales numbers at
the close of the program for use in our annual report (December
2013).
- All approved BOISE 150 commemorative products will be
identified with a BOISE 150 logo; BOISE 150 stickers are available
if needed. Merchants will be required to identify themselves as
program participants by displaying the provided BOISE 150 window
clings in a prominent storefront location.
- This program has no fee. It is our intention to promote local
business and highlight that Enterprise is as alive and well in
Boise today as it has been over the past 150 years.
