I'm new to the Art Fair Insiders, have taken a 45 year hobby to the professional level and gearing up to participate in my first art fair next spring. I look forward to learning all the ins and outs of the business and hope to be a valuable contributor at some point.

Thank you Jacki, I have already applied to 3 shows for next year and planning on at least 3 or 4 more. I will keep the group updated and hopefully become a valued participant. Thanks again for the welcome

Hey Bruce,
Thought I'd throw out that most seem to say about 50% acceptance rate on juried shows and as new artist it might be lower so if ya want 6-7 shows you may need to apply to 15-16 to get there. Good luck!

Thank you, I appreciate the info and will take your advise.
Glad to have you here, Bruce. I see you've gotten started. We love people who step up and answer others questions. This site is all about reciprocity.
