What are the best things about art fairs

People: fellow artists, art show patrons and enthusiasts.


Best show ever and why

Alexandria King Street Festival: enthusiastic crowds, significant sales to new, happy collectors.


Worst show ever and why

One in the Hamptons: extremely expensive to do, tiny attendance, dismal sales despite some great artists and art.

    Many topics have already been discussed here before you joined us. You might like to try a search of your topic before you post your question. Just put your topic, canopy tents, jurying fees, Ann Arbor Art Fair, etc, into the search bar at the top of the right side of the page. You might be surprised that someone has already asked your question.

    We also ask that all new members take a few moments of their time to read the code of conduct. You will find it at http://www.artfairinsiders.com/page/code-of-conduct. There are a few guidelines that all members will need to follow because , as in any social community, we all need to work together.

    Best wishes, Connie Mettler
