I haven't done a lot of shows lately, because sales have been down due to the economy and an increase in the number of jewelry vendors. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the two shows I've got scheduled in September turn out to be okay.
The first show, the Mariemont Art Show, has been around for a long time, so I'm not sure if it doesn't get the buying crowd or if people are just burned out on it. I've done it off and on for a number of years. I did it last year and it honestly wasn't worth doing, but it's close to home and in a pleasant setting. It is also easy to set up/tear down at. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, though, for good things this year.
The next show I have scheduled I did last year for the first time. It, too, has been around for a while, but it was a very nice show with music and was well organized. This show is the Wooster Arts Jazz Fest in Wooster, OH. I won a prize last year for best booth...it was quite unexpected and an honor. It definitely made the show worth it. This year, the show is on a Saturday instead of it's usual Sunday date. Hopefully, this will increase traffic and business. I'm looking forward to this show and hope I won''t be disappointed.
Regardless, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
