Good Things about this Art Fair: The crowd is there to buy. I was busy from 9 AM - 3 PM (show runs 9-5)

Bad Things about this Art Fair: Set up and tear down are a challenge. I had to carry my stock and tent to my booth-Don't forget a dolly. Parking is crazy and you have to wait in a long line to get back in to load up.
Advice to Other Artists Considering this Show: You really have to be patient with set up and tear down. The show is well run by the Rotarians, they have this show down to a system.
Don't forget your fire extinguisher. Be ready to sell by 9 am. The grounds are a beautiful, well maintained park. The instructions led me to believe you shouldn't leave your stock in your tent over night. Everyone did but me :) it made for a challenging morning.
I'll do this show again.

Additional Commentary on this Show: There were no vendor food lines which, when you do a show alone, is a challenge.
