I have been accepted to Columbia MO Art in the Park and decided to do the show. Columbia used to have a fall show, in a different location, and I liked it, until it was discontinued; so I have always been curious about the one in June.
I have been looking for a booth map for it. I have been unable to find one online. I contacted the show and was told they don’t give them out in advance.
I have not done this art fair before and I am unfamiliar with the park and the show layout. I wanted to see if I could figure out some logistics for my set-up, so as to have some idea what I am in for, and what area might be best to request, as my set up is very time consuming, and it is not drive up unloading.
Does anyone happen to have a map that you wouldn’t mind sharing? I would appreciate it. If so, please send me a friend request so we can communicate directly. Thanks.

Linnea,
The Columbia show, IMHO, is one of the best run shows around. They will help you get your booth gear to your space via golf carts w/small trailers. You sign up for a cart when you arrive. I didn't do this show last year, but that's how it was before. The show staff is very helpful.
Glad to hear it's well run. They did explain that that was how they transported artists displays to their spaces, but I also need to cart my bins in and out Saturday Morning and evening, and Sunday morning, because I don't leave my work in my booth. I don't expect there will be golf carts available all of those times, so I will probably need to dolly them myself. That's why I'd like to know which booths are closest to an unloading point.
