Dolores Fawkes replied to Eric Mort's discussion Is Artigras worth the drive?
"Hi Eric
I did the show last year and have done it before. I am also a jeweler with mid priced silver. I do well when there is good traffic, like you said you do. Given my experience with the show, I would not drive that far. It is an expensive place…"

Dolores Fawkes replied to Rick Wright's discussion Flourish Mesh Panels for sale -Kansas City area
"The mesh panels do work with the easy up. You just need to buy the stabilizer bars from flourish (for the east up). They work great. Also, the stabilizer bars are a great addition for the easy up as it makes it more stable. I would…"
April Chapman commented on Dolores Fawkes's blog post Athens Holiday Art Market
"Lynn (the promoter) isn't returning to Athens this year. The show last year didnt do well at all. There were several other events going on in the area and even Lynn herself was disappointed with the show. The photographer across from us packed…"
Lynda Marie Keen commented on Dolores Fawkes's blog post Athens Holiday Art Market
"So how did this show go? The promoter used to do a market in St.Augustine. A friend of mine was going up to Athens for the show and cancelled. lynn is now promoting a weekday show (Dec. 2011) in St.Augustine after Christmas. Pretty…"
Dolores Fawkes replied to Robert Jones's discussion How much can an artist bend the rules?
"I personally don't care if they apply to 20 shows a weekend and they apply to each one 20 ways. I just think, since they create the body of work TOGETHER, they aught to pick a show. I often get into two shows a weekend but I have to pick…"
Dolores Fawkes replied to Robert Jones's discussion How much can an artist bend the rules?
"OK...I have a big question. I was on a jeweler website yesterday, and the bio was explicit as to the fact that they designed and collaborated on all pieces. I was hoping to see their work as I was juried out of a show that one of these artists sat…"

If anyone is looking for a new show to try that has a promoter who actually seems to be doing her job, you might try to get into the Athens Holiday Show. I know it is closed to jewelry, but if you have some good gift items, you may want to contact the show. There are huge billboards up in Athens and her media package on her website looks good. I know we are all struggling now and hate to try new shows, but I was at a Howard Alan Show last weekend that is "established" and it was awful. Old worn… Continue
Info needed on Richard Sullivan's Boca Grande Show
Posted on November 2, 2010 at 8:23am 1 Comment 0 Likes
Has anyone out there done the Boca Grande Show that Richard Sullivan started last year? I am looking for an alternative to Gasparilla, but I don't want to get burned in the over saturated Florida market. Just trying to find out if they had a crowd last year.
