First show ever
Last October (2009) in Mars, Pa. Can't even remember the name of the show it was so wretched.
What are the best things about art fairs
Talking to people who love the things I make.
Best show ever and why
Handmade Arcade, Pittsburgh, Pa. This indie craft show is for people who create craft items, unlike many of the artists who post on this site. I consider myself artistic, but my work is considered craft. So, with that said, Handmade Arcade is the kind of place where indie folks shop for unique handmade crafts. So you see lots of amazing creativity, especially with regard to creative reuse of otherwise cast-off materials. I nearly sold out of my rings and received so much encouragement that i proceeded with my business full steam ahead.
Worst show ever and why
The first show was the worst. I have blocked the name from my memory. It was so poorly advertised that we had perhaps 50 people show up. What a let-down after all the effort to set up.
