Good Things about this Art Fair:
Inside show. They feed you quite well.
Easy load in and load out.
Bad Things about this Art Fair:
Sales were off this year. Every artist I talked to said sales were down. Returning artists said that this was not normal.
The hotel they set us up at was bad choice. There were nicer same price range hotels a lot closer. (host hotel was the other side of town)
Advice to Other Artists Considering this Show:
Stay closer. Bring smaller pieces, Almost all of the art I saw walking around was prints or small pieces. Did not see anything bigger than print size except one piece that looked like it was 18x36
Additional Commentary on this Show:
The Friday night Patron show is really a social event and don't expect art sales. Patron are more there for the social aspects and not there for the art.
