This weekend’s show was my first one this year that was dry both days. Saturday was overcast in the morning, but sunny all afternoon. Sunday was beautiful all day. Chastain Park is a great setting for a show. The show was set up along a tree-lined street in the middle of the park and seemed to stretch forever. There were 190 artists and the show was full of top quality work. The promoter did a great job in getting a good mix of categories.
Customer attendance to this first year spring show was a little disappointing. It may need a little time to mature and the promoters need to work on their strategy to get more customers in. However, customers were buying which made it a decent weekend. I had quite a few residents tell me how much they appreciate us being there and were excited that an event such as this had been brought to their area. There will also be a November show that I plan to attend.
Having all the trees behind everyone’s tent made for a nice setting.
