Good Things about this Art Fair:
Load in was easy, it's a covered space, so out of the elements.
Bad Things about this Art Fair:
It's a craft fair vs. an art fair. Lots of crafts, especially in jewelry, not 100% handmade by the artist, ie. jewelry made out of spoons....
Advice to Other Artists Considering this Show:
If you don't have high travel costs, and you have lower priced items that sell easily, then this might be a good show for you. Finer arts/crafts don't seem to go well.

Footnote to this show in 2012. We were not accepted when we sent in our application. A week ago received an email saying we were accepted off their waitlist. We were rejected, not waitlisted. That told me they were desparate to fill booth spaces.
We have already filled our schedule and elected not to return.
