Thank you Connie, and Thank you Richard and Joanna from American Art Marketing..for the free booth I won for donating to AFI. I think it was an amazing gift andI am most grateful I had the dates open for this show. HOWEVER.
It was outrageously H O T the whole show, which was held July 4-6, (2013) Thursday Friday and Saturday, 4th of July was extremely quiet, and for that matter so was friday, it picked up some on saturday, and I know there were a few folks who did extremely well at this show, I was not one of them, ( but since I had no booth fee, everything I made I kept, which is a wonderful thing! ) Most of the people I spoke with at the show thought as I did, DEAD.. was it the heat? the economy? the fact that they added a second show the following weekend? Did it split the crowd in two as many suspected? Is there a way to answer this question? I am sorry it was not better, I was thinking I would pay the fee for the second weekend, but the first was too brutal.. I make/sell clothing and most of the hot sweaty bodies of the customers were not inclined to try on white linen dresses....
