Larry Berman replied to Leanne Moss's discussion Can I Bring New Work After I’ve been Approved for a Juried Show?
"Some shows allow a certain percentage of work not juried in. The Michigan Guild has a 10% rule for new work. Best to ask.

Larry Berman replied to Oksana Ball's discussion Any suggestions on my booth?
"You're too scattered. Too many sizes and not sure how many products because there is too much in the booth. Not sure if you are doing reproductions but they are only allowed at some shows if they are within the category you are applying.…"

Larry Berman replied to Linnea Lahlum's discussion Unemployment and resuming art fairs: how hard is it to resume unemployment benefits after doing 1 art fair?

Leon Gibbs replied to Larry Berman's discussion Photographing your art using your canopy as a light source

"Loved seeing these pics. I can still see all five feet of her, tromping down the aisles, cigarette in hand, scowl firmly set. As gruff as she was, she made me laugh and she knew it, so we got along well. I miss her."
Connie Mettler replied to Larry Berman's discussion Jinx Harris

I remember when Norm and I first met you, in NYC at an art fair adjacent to Central Park. We splurged and stayed at a hotel across the street from the show and spent some time…"

Slide or Film Scanning

Time to get a Colonoscopy
