did this show for the first time this year -2013.
load in is a bit crazy, but otherwise okay. parking is hard to find, can be a bit of a hike. the area is residential and congested. representatives of the organizers were on each block and were there to help if needed. bathrooms were few and far between.
there was great foot traffic at this show. it's a vibrant community with a lot of character, and everyone seemed to come out for this show.. overall a good experience.
the weather was not great---it was 95 degrees and everyone was just steaming. also this was right after the government shut down and quite a few people mentioned the furlough.
had decent sales considering the heat.

Good Things about this Art Fair: Steady stream of shoppers with money to spend. 2011 was raining and cold yet the crowd was huge. They do a good job of ensuring quality exhibitors.
Bad Things about this Art Fair: Load in is a little chaotic but given that it is a big city in-the-street venue it is no worse than you might expect.
2012 is scheduled for my daughter's wedding so I can't do it this year!
Advice to Other Artists Considering this Show: Application deadline has been moved up this year.
