"Jill Pearson Thank you for your kind reply! Good info! "
"While I do love seeing artists being proactive about matters like this, In my experience anywhere I've left work has their own forms. They either insure it or they don't, and then I consider if it's worth it. It's usually mentioned on contract that…"
Hello!Does anyone have a good liability waiver template that we could use? We are participating in a few auctions and have to drop off the art way before the event. We want something simple that they sign when they take possession. Thank you!
"Phil Webster were you able to get your license? "
"Thank you, Kate McKeough I'll continue with the process. "
"I usually got hassled with out of state shows because I am a Sub-S corporation. They look at you differently than sole propritorships. TX was another bad one. The last time I checked on CA they wanted $2K, yes a $2K deposit paid upfront for sales…"
"I applied for the Kierland and Carefree shows. Accepted to Kierland and waiting on Carefree. I'm new to shows and traveling from San Diego so even if accepted, not sure if it makes sence to rent truck/van/trailer as I have a 10x20 flourish and lots…"

"Wow! That sounds awful, but glad you didn't get hassled anymore. I would feel the same and will think about this. Thank you for sharing! "
"Hi David,

"I grew up in AZ so decided to do Tubac in 2006. Old story but relavant to taxing authioruty which I hope has improved. Post show I paid my sales tax. A couple weeks later I get a refund check of taxes paid. Sent email asking why, No reply from them.…"
"I don't know about Carefree since I've only done Fountain Hills and Flagstaff Art in the Park, but AZ requires you sign up for both a state license (at AZtaxes.gov) and a city/county license (each city/county has their own procedure/application).…"
"Christina L. Towell yes, California. See the link above. Thank you!"
