Spring Outdoor Shows

I recently was asked by a local non-profit that I have done work for over the years if I was interested in showing at an upcoming outdoor fair they are holding with the city along the river. Not having done this type of thing I am looking for advice and general information from any one who has show their work at these type shows
Arts and Crafts fairs that start in April and run during the spring are always looking for people to show and sell their work. I want to ask if there is any general consensus on how much work is involved compared to the amount of earnings in these type venues for photographers?
Also what the best way to show is for this type venue?
Does it make sense to gear up for just one show or is the cost prohibitive without doing numerous shows? I imagine prints are the best sellers matted in plastic but wonder if the profit margin is worth the work and expense involved.
Any advice or comments would be much appreciated.
Thanks ; Kenn
