"Merritt, the same thing happened to me last year when I commented on the unfairness of a double extension to the deadline of a show. I had been wait listed, then after the comment, uninvited."

Your Medium: metal wall art

Years in the Art Fair Business: 7

First show ever: Mule Days in South Mississippi !

What is your website?: http://www.circledmetalart.com

What are the best things about art fairs: We can count on an infusion of funds into our checking account, and occasionally some cash also. :)
It is gratifying for someone to choose our work over the many choices available to them.

Best show ever and why: Denton Art and Jazz Festival. Sales were above average, and staff was helpful....setup fairly easy. The music was very enjoyable.

Worst show ever and why: Denver CO People's Fair
This show is so spread out that one may spend several hours there and never get by your booth. People were more interested in tarot card readings than in purchasing art.

Who referred you to ArtFairInsiders.com? Please be specific.: Fire ants were crawling up the walls of the booth. It was after a big rain and we couldn't control the ants. :-(
