Favorite show of the year; best organized, nicest people.
Crowd size down; make fest 1 hour longer.
Great event; work at more advertising; see you next year.
Festival could be improved by increasing amount of money put up by corporate sponsors toward push of artwork.
Good start $3000-5000.
Good experience but sales could have been better.
Lovely day with kind people.
Nice job; heard a lot of nice comments from patrons and other artists.
As always, an excellent show.
I've seen higher traffic, but people here bought, they obviously come to see and purchase art.
A great experience.
Great show! Other shows could learn from you!
This is a wonderful event in a very nice place. I'm sure it will become more and more
well-attended & successful as years progress.
Great music.
Best location for an art fair I have ever attended.
The organization was excellent.
Heat kept people away.
First time showing here was a great experience. Will come back again.
PLEASE let us come back!
Friendly accommodating atmosphere in every way.
One of my favorite shows because it is a good size, not too many booths, nice people and good quality vendors.
Great one-day show in beautiful surroundings.
Hospitality tent is very appreciated.
LMAF website very helpful.
Thank you for this opportunity. |
