Just a couple of things. First - I can personally attest to the amazing qualities of Flourish Canopies. It is more than 5 years since I have been on the artist side of an art fair but I helped out at a number of them for a few years all over the country. In my experience when you are traveling long distances to places with unfamiliar weather conditions and you are spending a lot of $$ on travel expenses, you can't afford to have uncertainties about whether your canopy will handle the conditions. So, it makes it worthwhile to spend the money on a good one so you know you can be in business and sell stuff! Our Flourish canopy was always really solid, waterproof, full of light, and constantly admired by other artists! Second thing I wanted to mention was the Artfair Source Book. Not sure if you mentioned that elsewhere but we used to find it very useful for assessing shows. My 2c worth. Daniel. Moshe,
