Collingswood was the worst show I ever attended that was booked as a craft show. Most was b/s. Flea Market would have been a better title.
I have done 3 shows with this promoter and I will never do them again. More and more b/s with each show.
Surprisingly, the 3 art jewelers I saw said they did well. Heck, they had no competition.

You are so sweet! I am only in Philly so I don't think that will be too far. Sorry to miss dinner.
I love to hear this feedback on Wheaton. I'm doing it this year and have really been looking forward to it. Thanks for posting.
I did Wheaton one year and loved it! Probably the best run ever. For some reason I didn't get accepted the second year and I was really disappointed. I didn't bother applying this year as i am trying to move more of my sales on line.
Thanks for the tip on Wheaton. Also close to me.
I've gotten very leery of any show with the word 'craft' in the title. A few are really art fairs but the vast majority are really 'craft' shows. If someone is selling towels with the crocheted top that goes over the handle of the stove, it's not a show for me.
I did this show a couple of years ago and never went back. It was two days and many artists left the first night and didn't return.
