David, you can get an idea of the diversity of media by looking at some of the top show sites list of participating artists. Most shows at least list the artists by media, and some will provide a representative image. From there, you may be able to link to the individual's site. 

It's not fast, but you'll notice many of the same names cropping up across the country. But keep in mind, jury images may not translate into what is selling or what is on the walls, since jury images tend to lag 6 months to a year behind an ongoing body of work.

 

For example:

Renaissance Art Festival

St. Louis Art Festival

Main Street Forth Worth

This may not be the most efficient way to do it, but it will give you a good idea of who is doing what kind of work where.

Actually Jim, that was very efficient. Thanks. That was exactly what I was looking for.

Better yet, attend an open jury and see what all the photographers submit, not just the accepted ones.

I'm out right now but I have a list of the shows on my website that have open juries.

If you have an iPhone or iPad, there are a few shows that have apps where you can see images of the exhibiting artists:

For a list of shows that project the images and have open juries, scroll down to the bottom of this article on the ZAPP image format problem:
