Years in the Art Fair Business

5years, then took a break for about twenty years selling through website or word of mouth. I have made jewelry for over 25 years.

What are the best things about art fairs

Meeting customers old and new and networking


Best show ever and why

I stopped doing shows for over 20 years. Due to a full tie job, raising children and a major illness. Just starting to try this route again.


Worst show ever and why

The show I just did a couple of weeks ago at American Family Fitness, location pretty much says it all, who goes to the gym to buy jewelry let alone bring their checkbook or credit cards. 0 sales great networking.


Who referred you to ArtFairInsiders.com? Please be specific.

I found this through my internet research of how to determine the best fairs for jewelry designed by artisans not mass produced.
