I searched the forums and reviews and couldn't find any real feedback on the Tulsa Mayfest, The Stillwater Arts Fest, or the Art For All Festival in Lawton, Oklahoma.  Has anybody participated in any of these shows and would be willing to share their thoughts?

 

My medium is photography with price range from 35 -750.  These shows are all close for me but little concerned with the Tulsa Mayfest as it runs longer than just a weekend so have to consider the taking off work factor.

 

Thanks

  • The show in Lawton is very low end. I did pretty well, but I didnt really talk to anyone who was super happy.  not a ton of traffic and mostly low end items sell. its an army base town and then some really interesting people with very few teeth.  The lady who runs the show is great though, and you can use the pool/hot tub/sauna/steam room/gym/showers/ etc at the YMCA next door as being part of the show. 
    I do Blue dome in tulsa which is kind of in conjunction with Mayfest. blue dome is supposed to be for local artists only but I do it with a friend who is from there so we kind of fly under the radar. We do great at Blue dome and most people say they do great at Mayfest. 
    good luck

  • The Tulsa show was very good for us.....very well organized and professional. We would definitely do it again if invited. Can also be extremely windy as it is in a downtown "corridor" that creates something of a wind tunnel.

  • I did Stillwater last year. I came from Miami, FL to do the larger OK City show the next week. It only added a few hundred to my total cost for the trip. It's a small show, on the same weekend as the OSU spring football game. The whole town shows up, most of them wearing orange (OSU colors). People are nice. The show is well organized. I made money, a few originals sold, a bunch of print sales. I am in the OKC show again, so I will apply again this year to Stillwater.

    Last year they offered to rent extra weights if you wanted them. This show can get very windy, so take them up on it if they make that offer again.
