Mattie Kelly Festival of the Arts
I was very happy to have been juried into this show again this year. This marks my third time there and my numbers were up from last year, despite unusual weather on Saturday.
Produced by the Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation in Destin, Florida, this show is well established and highly organized. The venue is perfect with ample parking. The layout can be a bit confusing but it works and booths have plenty of space without being crowded.
Art Festival at Thornebrook
This year marked my third time exhibiting at this show in Gainesville. I love everything about Thornebrook and setting up is always a breeze here. My booth location is in a parking lot so we can park where the tent is to be erected, unload onto the sidewalk behind it, then move the SUV and begin set up. Like most shows, I hold off installing product until the next morning.
Beaches Art Fest
This was my first Jacksonville area show and I was excited when I learned I'd made the cut. The Beaches Art Fest is produced by Holiday Art Shows and they they do a fabulous job from beginning to end. Following is their mission statement, taken from their website, holidayartshows.com.
