I will do my best to see if a display for the space can be created -
but there are no banners that I'm aware of here in the office. I've
been looking at, but not had the time, to create a nice pop up banner
with the Wikipedia and/or Wikimedia logo. But I might try to address
that in the next few days if I have time.
Right now our intern Deniz is putting together a box of all the
available stickers/etc we have to offer for the event - which includes
the remaining Wikipedia vests. Once we have a sense of what's in
there we'll let you know Phoebe and make it available for pickup or
delivery.
