Years in the Art Fair Business

38 years


First show ever

Frankfort = Labor Day Weekend - 1972


What are the best things about art fairs

Well, of course, the money ( or at least that's what it used to be !!) All my best friends are artists and crafters == I love the atmosphere of the shows == I love when customers say how much they like my work, and the compliments they get when they wear my jewelry == I can call my own hours (except, of course, on the weekends)


Best show ever and why

Hinsdale, 4th of July == because I make polymer clay American flag jewelry.


Worst show ever and why

There are always some really bad shows == they don't advertise, the location is terrible, the set-up is difficult, there is a lot of buy-sell stuff==we live and learn and talk amongst ourselves and weed out the bad shows.
