nice work, elizabeth.
i was thinking maybe we could partner with atleast one bronx youth group. since none of us are bronx based, it would be nice to be connected there in general, and especially for planning th bronx locations of this event.
anyone got any connections already?

This is by my office and I could potentially go there. We are not specifically VENDING an item, are we? Unless we want to say t-shirts? We would need to figure out our pitch and how this would work – but here is the info for new vendors:
Info for new/potential vendors:
THREE EASY STEPS:

As soon as you Register with Mardi Gras and purchase a space in one of the upcoming fairs, we will guide you through all the steps and supply you with a letter you need to file for #2) and #3) as listed below.
2-Get a New York State Certificate of Authority ( a Sales Tax # ). Easy to Apply For - No Fee Charged. You should have a letter from Mardi Gras confirming that you are registered and paid for a street fair.(Letter supplied by Mardi Gras upon request after the purchase of a festival space).

In what ways can we utilize corporate sponsors of street fairs? Can we ask them for space? Can we connect with them for stuff? Can we milk corporate social responsibility?
