Joel Hunnicutt replied to Harrison Otalor's discussion Insurance for New Orleans Jazzfest.
"Yes that one was a first for me.  I was in insurance in a previous life and minimum annual premiums can be an issue but $140 for 4 days sounds pretty strong, so I am going to shop around."

"Have never done the show but friends that have speak highly of it.  It is a small market, so I would look for sales to be mid tier.  They treat the artist very well."

Joel Hunnicutt replied to Patricia Ragone's discussion Bellevue Art Museum July show
"I did the show last year.  It is a really nice show.  Crowds were good, not huge, but good,  It is in the parking garage of the mall, so it is a bit strange.  I wish my sales had been better.  The customer base is affluent,…"

HI All.  just signed up for the Forum (although I have been lurking for awhile).I am a wood artist out of NC and have been doing shows for the last 10 years or so.  I am dealing with the same issues that we all are.  Increased expenses and decreased show revenue.  I do have a feeling that this will turn around a bit this year.  I am hopeful for all of us, we need a break!Looking forward to exchanging ideas and asking questions on this forum.  With the loss of a couple of forums over the last…See More
