What are the best things about art fairs

talking to lots of people; hearing their stories about their old stuff that they have dreams of reviving


Worst show ever and why

Oak Brook Holiday Festival. In a theoretically heated wood kiosk in the mall in December. Was just too cold for many people to come check it out or spend time browsing. Sunday was cancelled as the weather was going to be -2
