First show ever
The first show of any size was The Annual National Shrimp Festival in Gulf Shores, Al.
What are the best things about art fairs
Making a living, doing what I love. Interacting with the public. Spreading awareness and appreciation of art and its different forms. Each show is a learning experience.
Best show ever and why
I recently had my first show with over $10k in sales. It was The Annual National Shrimp Festival 2016 in Gulf Shores Alabama. It's also an extremely entertaining people-watching venue. It is a Seafood/Music festival with a Fine Art section of 40 or so artist.
Worst show ever and why
Art in the Pass, Pass Christian MS, 2014. I was relatively new and didn't have the most robust set up. I had a booth full of "can't get wet". It spat rain most of the weekend, but from about 3pm til 9pm on Sunday I could not break down due to torrential rain, thunder and lightning. There were still plenty of positives and lessons learned, as with any show.
