First show ever
Women's Guild Holiday Fair, Davis, CA, 2019
What are the best things about art fairs
Connecting with people that connect with my work! I love the hustle and bustle
Best show ever and why
Palo Alto Festival of the Arts Just a very good fit for my work. Amazing organizers: PFA
Worst show ever and why
Can't answer that. To name the fair that I had the least sales at would be unfairly discriminating. A fair that may have been disappointing for me could very well have been amazing for my neighbor. Some fairs may not have been as well organized as other, but none so egregiously that I put them in the category of "worst show"

"Thank you! I have been showing (using gridwalls up to this point) since right before Covid and just love it. I agree, it is a hard hard labor of love lol"

"Love the clean lines of the full panels but your comment about packing the car is a good one--lots of choices w the KDs. (Hopefully what time you lose packing your car, you might gain back in the quicker set up of the full panels :-) thank you for…"
"Oh wow, sorry your vehicle failed--ugh NIGHTMARE--but good point point about not wanting to be stuck without other options of getting your panels to the show. I love your idea about hitching the halves together when you do have a large van to…"
"been very happy with them."
"All your comments affirmed my feelings abound the KDs. Full disclosure, I couldn't contain myself and I bought them shortly after posting my question. In any event (pun not intended), I just don't see myself investing in a large enough vehicle to…"
"Great info--I hope to do a couple fairs this year which (unfortunately) are on sloped ground so I ordered the telescoping legs. More expensive but I hope they will reduce the headache of setting up on a slope--at the very least they will help with…"
"Definitely get the knock downs. I had the full panels for many years but when my van broke down the night before a show I didn't have access to another vehicle that was big enough to transport them. I lost a lot of money by missing that show. So, I…"
"We purchased the knock downs because we did not have a vehicle large enough for the full size panels. We really like them. it does take a little longer to set up at the shows just because you have to attach the tops to the bottoms, but with the…"
"I bought the full size panels because they fit no problem in my vehicle. I now wish I had bought the knockdowns because the full panels are awkward and too heavy for me to carry more than one at a time. While they fit in my vehicle, they are awkward…"
"Thank you. I feel they will give me the most flexibility RE transporting over the years. Have you otherwise been happy with them?

"we have knock downs and it makes transport much easier"
Hi everyone, I am getting closer to making a purchase of ProPanels. In my current situation I will be able to haul the full (7' x 38.5") panels, but thought I should consider the knock downs in case my vehicle situation changes in the future. I…
