As you know fine art & fine craft shows are hard to come by in December but I've found a first time show in St. Augustine the week between x-mas & new years that I'm going to give a try. It's on Zapp as The Old Town Art & craft festival.
As I'm always leary about first time shows I contacted the show director to get the scoop. Lynn Wettach is the show director and she and her husband are both artists on the circut. Last year she was in St. Augustine the week between x-mas & new years and it was packed with people so she decided to host a show there. It will be held in Fransis Field which is where all the busses let out and the main parking garage is, I've done shows there in the past and it's great visibility. There will be no entertainment to draw people away from the artists and she assured me that the selection of artists and crafters will be balanced with no buy sell allowed. The show will be on Wednesday & Thursday with setup on Tuesday, very easy setup & breakdown. The cost is 225. for a standard space and if you want a corner it's 50. more.
If you read my blogs you know I search out smaller or little known shows and if Lynn does everything she says she's going to I think this show has a chance. Every time I've done this show with the art league I've done over 2K.
