"Thank you kindly, Deborah. It sounds much like most shows I've encountered, good one season and not so good another. Much like yourself, this is only my fifth season and there is always a learning curve. I must say that you're…"

How Y'all doing.I'm thinking of doing the Jump Street event in Harrisburg at the end of May but I have a question and I was hoping my fellow members here, could help me out.My question is this, do the organizers of this show have any arrangements for overnight parking of RV's?

Profile Information

Your Medium: Paint

Years in the Art Fair Business: 6

First show ever: Huntington Beach, Ca

What are the best things about art fairs: When they end. of course!

Best show ever and why: I haven't had my best yet, or at least I hope not. Because, if I have already had it, that means it's downhill from now on.

Worst show ever and why: I have certainly seen some bad ones, though, I'll have to get back to you on that one.

One must never tempt the Fates, not ever!

Who referred you to ArtFairInsiders.com? Please be specific.: Some fine young woman in a bar. I remember her, I don't remember the bar.

What is one fun fact about yourself?: That I am a "Greater Fool". Someone who has the proper mix of optimism and pessimism. The problem is, that I can never get them to coincide.
