I would like information on displaying at the Chain of Parks Festival in Tallahassee April 19 & 20th please.

I'm interested in becoming a vendor for the Delray Beach festival, what do I need to do next?
Posted by: Barbra Marlin | March 09, 2008 at 04:05 PM
If you are interested in applying to participate in any of the above events "google" the name of the event and visit their web sites where you will find all the answers you need to becoming a participant. Be aware though, most of these events are juried and require your applying up to six months before the event takes place. So, don't hesitate, contact them before it is too late.
Best of luck in joining the community of art fair artists.

I am an artist and would like a booth at your event. What is the step I need to do to become an artist vendor in your events?
Thank you.VJ
Posted by: Vojtech Zamecnik | July 01, 2008 at 10:20 AM
Thanks for writing, V.J. I do not have any connection with the events listed on this calendar. If there is an event you are interested in contact the organizers of that art fair and you can get the information for applying from them. Best of luck.

i create hand made costume accessories , my field is belly dance. but i have been tagged as a jeweler, this is not correct. i feel it is more craft than jewelry, that`s why i am having a hard time, finding a venue. any suggestions?
Posted by: rina | July 24, 2008 at 04:50 PM
Hi Rina, It sounds to me like you are making jewelry - jewelry is a craft, right? Don't focus on the purpose of the accessories, focus on what they actually are--jewelry, which is a handmade craft.
Depending on how you present yourself, funky fun belly danceware, or serious fine work, will depend on what venue works for you. In fact, it sounds to me like you can position yourself many different ways.
What do you think it will be? Your decision.

Hello, I was wondering when you will have the
events and dates for 2009 available. I am a vendor looking to book events but most require advance registering.
Posted by: Vikki Brook | November 01, 2008 at 05:34 PM
I am interested in participating in
an art show in the Vero Beach, Naples
area. Kindly advise procedure. I am
a jewelry maker.
Thank you.
Posted by: Marilyn Sullivan | November 10, 2008 at 02:03 PM
I am working on those dates right now and hope to have them there by the end of November. If you know any art fair organizers, please ask them to update me. Thanks.
Posted by: Constance Mettler | November 13, 2008 at 04:34 PM
Marilyn, look on the Florida page of this website. Locate events that are of interest to you and "google" the events. Contact them asap...it is almost already too late to participate in Florida events this season. Most of them are juried six months before time. Good luck.

The asterisk * is my not-so-subtle way of telling myself that the date has been updated for the new year.

How you determine the best show to select? Example I am looking to do a floral booth but not sure what type of show to look into?

The Community Redevelopment Agency for the Town of Lake Park would like to introduce Art on Park. Art on Park will begin hosting monthly openings in our gallery on the 2nd Saturday of each month. The first one will be on June 12th from 6-9pm. The purpose of this event is to feature our new co-op's studio and display artists. We are pleased to present new photography, prints, mosaics and paintings. New artists are joining everyday!

hi! i was just wondering if high school kids in a digital photography class could enter in any of these competitions.
Posted by: lauren mulligan | September 27, 2010 at 12:14 PM
Hello Lauren, Art Shows are not competitions. Photography students would need to look for competitions some where else on the web. Art Fairs are business. People get into them to earn a living by selling their art work. It is serious business.
