Yesterday was my 1st art fair! I replaced the tent that flew away with an EZ-Up, and it came with sandbags so I filled them up with 30lbs of sand each. I decided 30lbs per leg wasn't enough, so I added a 20lb concrete brick on top of that! Needless to say, I still have my tent.
I had a good time out there and did a live demo throughout the day. I also won 3rd place in the 2D category! It was a lot of work, and I hope that a couple of commissions will follow, and I will be doing at least one more art fair this year depending on what applications are accepted.
Cris, or anyone else with an answer, when I do an art fair that lasts more than one day is it generally OK to leave up the walls and the tent? I am just not sure about setting up and tearing down 3 days in a row.
