Title: Artist suits against PARF
Post by: groomporter on July 21, 2021, 08:12:04 AM
Looks like a number of crafters are suing PARF. Management refused to refund fees for people who declined open their booths in 2020 due to Covid and refused to roll the fees forward to 2021 as has been the common policy for most of the industry.

IDK, I'm thinking the only winners here will be the lawyers.  Surely the faire could have come up with some kind of compromise to help out the vendors. Don't have any details and don't want to speculate.

"Interesting" that management, or their lawyer didn't bother to appear...

seems like the age old sin of greed is involved here. I feel bad for the vendors involved.
