Referred to this year as CAN’s “expanded” Psychic Fair, organizers may need to consider yet more “expansion” come next year’s 10th anniversary fair in order to accommodate visitors in timely fashion.
Still, pretty much everyone agreed, the wait was worth it,
especially since they could spend the time browsing the unique offerings of several vendors set up in Robie’s room, the space named for the late Nashua resident Robert Goyette.
Initially sponsored by the Friends of the Hunt Building, the fair became a City Arts Nashua event six years ago, CAN member and fair organizer Judith Carlson said.

“There is no better atmosphere for a reading than the Hunt Memorial Building,” Carlson said, noting that the bulk of the readings take place in the Hunt’s restored “old reading room.”
The proceeds of the event provide valuable support for the ever-growing list of arts-related projects CAN sponsors each year.
The largest of those is the Meri Goyette Arts Awards Luncheon, the 2019 version of which is scheduled for Sunday, April 14, at Sky Meadow Country Club.
“We’ve got some wonderful things in the works” for this year’s event, according to the City Arts Nashua folks.
