I am wondering about a show held at Durham,NC. on Sept 15&16th. Has anyone done this show before??? I don't know much about the Durham area, just trying to stay a little closer to home, less travel. I live near Asheville and this is not bad travel time. I notice that they didn't have a show last year and use a three year system for jurying. Any info would be helpful.

I've never done CenterFest but had one of the organizers stop by my booth this past weekend to talk it up. He said they canceled it last year so they could reorganize it and get their ducks in a row. It sounds like they want to raise the quality of artists and expand the music. I had dinner with friends of mine over the weekend who live in Durham and they prefer Centerfest to Artsplosure. A little lower key and not as much hype... The jury and booth fees are low and I don't have anything else for that weekend so will go ahead and apply...
But I will defer to our Raleigh/Durham based artists who have real experience...
Thanks,I too was wondering about the booth fee,very good considering what I usually pay. I did check out who did the show in 2010 and it looked fairly good, maybe I'll also apply. Durham isn't to much of a trip from here, so we'll see.
