I got in to the Art Fair Denver for this November. It seems to be the first one, so there aren't any reviews. Has anyone heard anything about it, though? Is there a consensus on whether it will be worth going to? I'll be traveling from Nashville, so it will be a hike for me to get there. Thanks for any wisdom or comments.

I wish my shows were just 1,200 miles from my home. We're in Wyoming and mostly do shows at Florida. Winter Park is 2,175 miles from our home and that was our first show of the spring season.
You can do it, Brian. GIT ER DONE!
Sort of difficult to have any feedback about a show that is a first time new show. My wife and I are participating also and we looking forward to being there. Since it is produced by the Cherry Creek people we feel there much going on for this show.
Thanks everyone for their help. I still have yet to do a regional show -- I've done a few local, indoor shows -- and I'm just a little nervous about renting a van and driving so far. It might be worth it though, and I've got to get off the fence about this.
You roll the dice, Brian. Do you have a wide price point? Do you have an attractive indoor setup? This is going to be a classy show and everything will be nice. The CCAF people have good connections in the public and in the media.
That podcast I did talks about a lot of things, but in the last half you'll find Terry talking about their plans for the show with a lot of details so you can get an idea of what it will be. Not another art show, but a consumer show with other attractions with the main focus on the art. You never get the crowds indoors that you do at a street show, but they will be "qualified."
Hey there, Brian.
Congratulations on getting into the show. The show is actually just called ART DENVER, so when you do the search leave the word FAIR out of it. I did it for you and the two threads came up right away for me. Here's the link to the one Greg Little started several weeks ago. I started the other thread a few months ago and it just has my initial post and then one from Greg in it saying he submitted for jury.
GREG LITTLE'S ART DENVER LINK
Thanks, Barrie, for ferreting out the link. I'm having one of those days when keeping all the balls in the air is not working so well.
Brian, there was another discussion on this last week -- please use the "search" and see what you come up with. I think Greg Little started it.
Also, I did a podcast with Terry Adams from CCAF early this month and we talked some about it. You can listen here and pick up some more info.
Thanks for the reply Connie. I tried to search it, but couldn't find anything, especially since "art fair" - what they're calling it -- is pretty generic, and any reference to Cherry Creek results in showing discussions about the summer fair. I'll try looking again. They really could have come up with a more novel or unique name for the fair!
