Should I be flattered or disappointed? As a "newbie" to the art fair circuit, I guess that I should be pleased that I have been accepted to most shows that I have applied for and I have been wait listed for a couple of really reputable shows...My question is.... does anyone know the percentage of artists that get wait listed for a show and what are the real possibilities of getting accepted once on that list?
wait (2)
"Congratulation you are accepted to our show".
Did it ever happen to you what have happened to us? Please comment!!!
This is the second time within 6 month that this is happen to us:
We apply to a show for several years, get rejected or to the wait list if we are lucky,
and than finally, get this "Congratulation you are accepted" e-mail or letter
one of them was even with a contract and booth number.
Then when you are all excited and get ready, to finally participate,
maybe cancel another show you got in,
Comes this e-mail, with an apology:
We are so sorry, we made a mistake you are actually on the wait list.
This is not OK!!!!!!
