Very pleased with the number and quality of attendees. Wonderful community!
Well planned, organized and communicated.
This is my favorite show of the summer!
Very well organized & professional staff. No confusion at all from artist standpoint.
I'm glad it was one day, not two day.
Overall, a great festival.
9 a.m. seemed a little early to start.
Enjoyed & will come back. It would be nice to grow this event - more attendance, a bit longer, maybe 2 days if this happens.
Seemed like 1/2 the crowd of last year - Kept sales down.
One day - go til 5:00 or 6:00.
Sales and attendance may be down because of economy(?).
You can never have too much advertising/promotion.
Enjoyed this festival. Ease of unloading and turnout. The amenities were greatly appreciated.
Better sales.
I think there could have been better promotion in surrounding communities.
One of my easiest shows - love the unload/load; love that it's shaded; love that it's 1 day til 4 pm.
Number of exhibitors is good - Keep show small & charming; Good qualtiy of art, good place for start-up artists.
Encourage Friday night setup.
Sales low compared to most art fairs, even this year most shows have been better than expected. I do have high end product, so maybe area is not right fit for me. But I might try again next year.
Happy with show overall.
Very happy.
Very good fair; economy wasn't helpful, but ok.
The event is wonderful, I just had poor year in sales.
The breakfast and free massage are great! Thanks so much.
