Party On Friday, Help Save Memphis’ Indoor Trailer Park
Local tour guide / juke joint enthusiast / artist Tad Pierson has helped hundreds of locals and tourists find their way to some of Memphis' great hidden landmarks. Now, it's time to help him save his own.
Tad is in danger of losing his Indoor Trailer Park, the amazing downtown space where he lives, works, wrenches on cars, throws parties and hosts guests.
If you've never seen it, it's like a regular trailer park, if trailer parks were inside. He's circled vintage Airstream trailers around an Astroturf lawn, and – best of all – he'll let you stay overnight in them.
The point is – we need to save the incredible piece of Memphis that Tad has created.
On Friday night, there's going to be a big party at the Indoor Trailer Park.
Starting at 6 p.m., you can:
– Go to a big, fun party at Memphis' only (hell, possibly the world's only) indoor trailer park.
– Buy some art (both Tad's pieces and the works of his friends).
– Book American Dream Safari tours or night stays in the Trailer Park.
– Get your photo taken in Jamie Harmon's Amurica photo booth.
If you can't make it out Friday night, you'll have a second chance on Saturday morning. Starting at 10 a.m., there will be a big community yard sale in the Trailer Park. Or, you could just donate a little bit of cash to help save Tad's amazing space.

I write about what’s going on with Memphis music, food, arts, events, sports, people, and culture. Memphians love Elvis and barbeque with a passion that must be seen to be believed, but there is so much more to this place.
the address on the trailer park website is pretty vague. Never been. AmI going to be driving around looking for clues to the secret Rave like in did in the 90's or is it pretty straight forward?
Well lord knows I wanna help save an indoor trailer park! Hell, who wouldn't !!!!!
And theys gone be a big wing dang doodle to boot!!! Shoot man I'll tell you what…
why is he losing the trailer park?
where the hell is it. whats the address?
It’s right next to Stop 345, just off of Danny Thomas.
I'll donate some money if he opens up the trailer park to the homeless. Its going to be getting cold soon!
Is it kid friendly? Seems like someplace my 12 and 14 year old kids would like.
It is – just let Tad know you’ve got kids, and it’ll be fine.
