What are the best things about art fairs
To display and sell to a vast range of clientele. Travel to amazing places and eat at amazing restaurants
Best show ever and why
Rio Grande Art and Craft Shows Promoters are a high class act. Care about their Artists and do their best to accommodate. Advertise extremely well. Favorite show was the Colorado Indian Market. Another well run advertised show that the Rio Grande people took over when founder Randy retired.
Worst show ever and why
Indoor Holiday Art and Craft Show in Durango, CO Promoter did not promote. Floor lay out was crammed and attendees could not move through the aisles, fire hazard. Water from the roof started leaking onto part of my booth and art, damaging it. Promoter told me to deal with it. Last one to pack down and they wouldn't allow me to drive in to load my truck even though they allowed a few others. The hate was real for no reason I could tell.
