Hot ticket: Circus McGurkis is coming!

By Times Staff
Published October 27, 2005


Circus McGurkis: The People's Fair offers its usual eclectic blend of music, crafts, food and political activism this year, but in a different location.

Construction forced the festival from its regular spot at Dell Holmes Park on Lake Maggiore to Walter Fuller Park, 7891 26th Ave N, St. Petersburg. The free event, sponsored by the Religious Society of Friends Quakers and Tampa Bay Peace Education Program, runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. The rain date is Nov. 12. (727) 896-0310; www.circusmcgurkis.org
