What are the best things about art fairs
art people are down to earth . i like fairs (art shows) in places that are like park settings. unless the general public is not too gassy from the fried bread and polish hot dogs , a show in the sticks or woods can be a real nice time. in any case the reaching out to the art comunity and gaining posable gallery leads and such is always good. prevent art show fires keep open flames away from the gassy .
Best show ever and why
the az . fine art expo . made bucks man. plus its my back yard - as i live in phx. others may include the marin show ,ca. hmm just cuz it was a pretty site. (though was not a big money show (for any body). there have been so many ,..the loveland show, pretty much any show thats at a park like setting .
Worst show ever and why
asking me to talk smack ? -ok. was at a tuscon strip mall ! yuck! a unknown promoter. horrible trafic hot congested location -tuscon is smelly. and wallets were thin . -- not into local shows- though my pa (sir king richard bell smith )did pull in a 40 somethin k sale once , after getting the ok to set up a one man show infront of a ritzy aj's food market.
