As an artist, I hate when shows extend their deadlines. It looks like they're just being greedy, looking for more jury fees. But we're different!
We have always had a November 1 deadline but changed it this year to October 1. Many people missed the

I am doing the Estero Fine Art Show Jan 7-8 and the Boca Raton Fine Art Show jan 21-22. I am looking for something to fill the weekend in between those two shows (Jan 14-15). It doesn't need to be an awesome show, just something that is still

The Jekyll Island Wild Shrimp and Grits Festival in South Georgia was a resounding success. This was their 7th year and if holding an event at the historic Millionaire’s Village sounds profitable you are correct.

I am feeling a bit beat up right now due to my overall lack of success in getting into most of the Florida shows. I just got my "you suck" emails from both Naples and Bonita Springs in February, as well as some others, so all I have is Artigras

Read more…I participated in a brand new show Nov 11 - 13 in Hampton Virginia. It was an interesting concept - and I think once the show director gets the kinks worked out - it could be an annual event for me.
The director wanted to have a bazaar craft section

I cannot believe the lack of integrity, the deceit, just everything about this total

So the Brookside 2012 show application just appeared on ZAPP. Anyone willing to share thoughts on how difficult it is to get in to this show when you're a "local"?

This was a 2 day show put on by Rose Squared. It was last weekend, September 17th and 18th. The hours both days were 10 to 5. Set up and break down was easy because you could park behind your booth. The promoters ran a tight ship with no snags.
