The 2008 Fayetteville Arts Festival was a lot of fun for me. I sold prints, talked about art, and colors and my favorite author, and got to meet a bunch of super people. I found that the display I had planned for the booth worked perfectly and it was the easiest art show set-up I have ever done. The organizers of the event are all artists themselves and they volunteered their time to make this event happen. I have never been at a show that treated its artists better. I was met at the loading dock by a beautiful young man with a giant cart and he helped me load everything into the service elevator and then pointed me to the coffee. Great start! Friday evening there was a preview party and some of my artist friends from Eureka came over for that. Saturday, many of the festival attendees had been to the farmers’ market and were strolling about with gorgeous bouquets of flowers and Sunday the serious collectors came to play. I met a woman with beautiful purple hair and a sweet baby who turned out to be the daughter of some friends. I loved the show and hope everyone who came out had as much fun as I did. The Fayetteville Arts Festival continues this weekend with performance art taking center stage. The 24-hour play should be a blast. I may be heading back to town soon.
