Good Things about this Art Fair: Easy load in, beautiful location beside the river, it's the one big art show for this Tri-Cities area in the summer, it's a great alternative to the 3 shows that are held in Bellevue WA the same weekend. Great sales for a 2 day show.

Bad Things about this Art Fair: It can be very hot! This year the booths were reconfigured and while we had the same number as the prior years, we were in direct sunlight most of the day instead of having a large portion of the day with shade.

Advice to Other Artists Considering this Show: Friday- very long day - 12 hour day - be prepared with lights for the time when you are in shade or if you're under a tree. Electricity isn't provided, helps to have your own battery set up. Overall the show is good 2 day show for us.
