  Follow the link Timethief gives in this other thread on the exact same subject. Widgets do not appear on all pages in the theme you are using.

  On menus, if you have created a custom menu, make sure on at appearance > menus that in the upper left in the “theme location” module you have selected your custom menu from the pulldown and saved.

  The theme you are using is not coded to display widgets on static pages.
  For troubleshooting tips on custom menus this post I have linked to may be helpful.
