"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.
