Hi All --
This past summer was my first on the art show circuit, and we started
out with a King Canopy, which performed quite well. I'm a stained glass
artist, so my husband built a framework out of weighted 4x4 corner posts and horizontal metal pip

Hi all - so I thought I'd post a review of the show I did this weekend - the Highwood Last Call Art Fair, an Amdur show in Highwood, IL. This is also connected to a question about discounts...will get to that in a moment.
The festival was on a str

I believe the correct dates for this event are Sept. 11th-12th NOT the weekend of the 18th.
I'd personally say less that $250 and the show begins to have more red flags than usual. Not that anything above that price for a booth guarantee's anything, but it would seem thats where the caliber of the artists and sales seem to become real.
Did anyone participate this show?
Has anyone out there heard of ExpoArtistry or Tasker Day? Does anyone know anything about these two just added events in Indiana that they're putting on? Any info appreciated!
