I learned that lesson as well! I might add that SOME festivals that don't
contain the word "crafts" really are arts & crafts festivals. I was
sorely disappointed with the Cornhill Arts Festival here in Rochester that
turned out to be loaded with crafts and commercial displays. When I complained
to the organizers after the fact they responded that on their application
they mention crafts so I should have known.

Oh well. Lesson learned.
