Are you considering selling your art in art fairs? Congratulations. You may have one nagging question: “How do I get started in art fairs?”

When I visited art fairs before I entered the “circuit”, I never considered how much time it takes an artist to set up and tear down for the show.

Occasionally, I get asked how I transport my prints, bins, tent, chair and everything I take to an art fair.

That’s a very important question especially for those considering entering art fairs.

If you are considering doing art fairs, look around at how much each artist requires in their booth. Ask them how they transport their booth, accessories and product from their car to the booth location? You may be surprised at the answers.

As is the case with any professional activity, selling your product at art fairs requires a healthy, energetic attitude.
