8869121495?profile=originalTUESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 5:30 PM ET

ArtFairCalendar.com has just finished its 1st annual "America's Best Art Fairs" survey and we are announcing the winners on this podcast.

We asked our mailing list of nearly 50,000 art fair patrons  what was the best art fair in the country and had an amazing response from across the nation. Nearly 96% completed the lengthy 22 question survey and the answers were both expected and intriguing. 

Not surprising: people love to attend art fairs and many travel long distances to do so and plan them as part of their vacations. The overall conclusion is: Art is Alive and Well in America and attendance at the nations shows is proof.

Listen to find out what are the Top 50 shows in the country as voted on by the people who attend them and collect art. Find out which they have chosen as the best regional fairs, best urban fair, bestt small market show and the best cities for art fairs.

We'll share the survey answers on:

  • why they don't attend shows they used to love

  • Where can we see the list?

  • We welcome your comments and calls. The first half of the show we'll talk about the winners, how they were chosen, who participated and give some statistics surrounding the development of the survey and talk about who the voters were. 

    We had a great and thoughtful response to the survey. I'm so pleased and thankful to everyone who participated -- anyway, if you've got questions, or a story to tell, or are one of the winners, call in. This is a celebration of all the good things about art fairs.

    (and the survey even asked this dreaded question "Are there art festivals you used to attend but don't any more? If so, why not?")
