Jane: This is awesome. I'm putting it in my mental "gimmicks to steal" file!
Brea: The people to contact locally about snakes are members of the Herpetological Society of Minnesota. Here is their website:
Minnesota Herpetological Society
There are several bellydancers who work with snakes out at the Renaissance Festival. There was actually a reptile and bellydancer show last year! As far as I know, all the snakes came from the MN Herpetological Society members.
I've never seen a snake at an normal indoor venue though...I imagine there are health regulations.
