Riverside, IL May 22-23

Run by Erin Melloy (EM Events) with the local chamber and art center
Nutshell: Third year for this show, it is growing, improved tremendously over the last two years, organizers are committed to creating a good art show.

Nice show and getting better every year. A committed group of people are running this event. There was good advertising and a steady crowd came through until the heat wave hit on Sunday afternoon. I was satisfied by my sales (not sure you would be because I am local). Easy, drive-in set up on Friday night, nice party on Saturday night for the awards, snacks and water provided and an indoor bathroom. Sunday tear-down was a relative breeze. Anyone who does Erin's shows knows she has things together and it is always a pleasure. This is a historical, conservative community established 18?? by Fred Olmstead, the famous landscape architect. There are Frank Lloyd Wright homes here. About 65 artists on the street on front of the art center and Higgins Glass. The location worked well.
