What are the best things about art fairs

I like to interact with the fair goers.


Best show ever and why

Chicago Botanic Gardens, July 2011. After several years of not having their art fair it returned and large crowds of buyers showed up. I did quite well.


Worst show ever and why

Barrington IL, Memorial Day weekend 2012. Lookers and that's it. Did not make half the expenses. Most other exhibitors had the same bad experience.
