Sowebo Festival, Baltimore, MD. If you want me to attend your event- Go here for rates- http://www.geocities.com/artcars/hutmanartcars.html A few event guidelines. I am a visionary artist. The cultural setting for my participation is extremely important. 1. Hospitality- Food, drink, good times, admission to event should be provided. I generally travel with my family-daughter and wife. We can not afford out of pocket expenses. For us there is a great difference between a cultural event where everyone breaks bread and a commercial one where everyone might as well be sitting in front of a cash register. We will still negotiate but the cost to you will be much higher. 2. We will never pay to attend any event. It is insulting for anyone to ask us to help them make money while at the same time charging us money. 3. Volunteer Philosophy: Ideally it is best that when we are asked to volunteer everyone else is also volunteering. We find this a fair relationship. We would much rather things be that way. If people are making money at the event it is only fair to share that money with all participants. We will do local benefits but, if we feel that the event takes us out of our normal everyday travel compensation for inconvenience will be required. Additional cars will generally be available but at a cost of somewhere around....$100.00 per car per event minimum. See the events link here for more details http://www.geocities.com/artcars/hutmanartcars.html 4. Costs for long term distant events....: All fees are negotiable but as
a general guideline- Let us discuss your plans. The more input we have the more economical it will be for you. click here to email me. To return to the top of the page click it right here!
