I'm doing at least May and June of a 5x Second Saturday's show (May-September) this summer already in North Kansas City.  It's free so if it goes well I'll do more dates of it.  I did 4 times of it last year and it was really slow.  They changed the format this year to start later and overlap more of a car show at the same location which draws lots of people out.

 

However, I just got an email about getting into my first juried show ever!  It's the Liberty, MO show and is Saturday only.  Their fall festival draws 30,000 in a town of 30,000 and there's a history of community support in general.  The spring show is always quite a bit slower than in the fall but last year I went and it had more people than the NKC show did.

 

Three more shows to hear back on, next two by the end of May and one late July.   I want to get into at least one big three-day show this year.

 

If you're in KC come up to downtown Liberty June 4 and look for the giant camera hanging from a tent.

  • I heard from them this morning as well, and I too got in. It is my first show as well. Do you have a tent? Can you accept credit cards? Those are my two missing components. I'll be the woman with the landscape paintings, see you there. Debbie
