Are Art Fairs Actually any Good for Artists? [42]
b'
This week we\\u2019re discussing art fairs. We both have a slightly different perspective on these events - one of our rare disagreements - so today we\\u2019re tackling it head on. Louise asks: \\u201cAre art fairs really a viable sales vehicle for most of us? Or are many artists paying high fees to rent space without earning a return on the investment?
\\nWe debate our differing viewpoints and discuss how you can determine whether an art fair might be the right place to show your work. This includes considerations such as whether you are ready for this step, what kind of fair would suit you best, is the event well-run and well-attended, and how do art fairs fit into your overall plans?
\\nWe also announce an exciting end-of-year event scheduled for the week of November 18th. \\u201cYour Best Art Year Ever\\u201d will be an interactive live 5-day event during which we will share our approach to planning for success. There will be live chat, laughs, sound advice, a chance to ask questions, and even a few free downloads so that you can plan your own \\u201cbest art year ever.\\u201d You can join the Facebook group now and start to get to know everyone, so that you\\u2019re ready for when we start on November 18th.
