What are the best things about art fairs

Seeing people smile


Best show ever and why

Live Oak Park Fair in Berkeley, California. It's a small show in an even smaller neighborhood. The folks loved my work, and I sold over 80 pieces with an average price of about $65 at the time, inflation has driven that higher now.


Worst show ever and why

Washougal Days. This was actually the worst in sales at $20 but the best in that "Bennie" the cat found us and made my wife very happy.

    Hi Joe, just found out that Candy Dance near Reno is accepting apps again, we were thinking about combining that with the Los Altos Fall festival for a road trip. Any thoughts or feedback on either of those shows?

    Thanks

    Thanks Joe, maybe we'll meet at one of the shows in CA sometime in 2012, we do plan to spend May and September in CA.  Currently our only OR shows are Astoria Wine and Seafood Fest in April and Hood River Harvest Fest in Oct. both of which have good track records for us.
