What are the best things about art fairs

Like hanging out with fellow "gypsy's", freedom, traveling, and meeting and servicing great customers that appreciate fine art.


Best show ever and why

Probably Louisville June 2011, Howard Alan. Great weather, good crowds, nice location, well supported, good sales.


Worst show ever and why

Naples Master's 2010. Down from 130 artists to just 35. Held in parking lot of bankrupt shopping center. Competing shows just 3 miles away were much better quality with community support.
