Only a few more days until set up on Friday! Excited and slightly nervous before the maiden 'voyage!'

Gridwall tower layout is planned, and 36+/- matted and sleeved originals have been priced and sealed. Everything actually fits in the car, with a little room to spare. Even though it is an indoor event, the weather looks good!

Will try to post an Instagram story, or two, but will at least post throughout @ScriptMAbstractArt.

Recap, here, on Monday as a new thread.

Cheers, MAL

Original Post: First time in an Art Show - Pointers??

I am thrilled to be personally taking part in my first public, group art show in late-July! In the past, my work was shipped to galleries for small, group shows, but I did not attend because of (distance and travel costs.

This show is local with about sixty artists on display and we are expecting a few thousand people to come through over the weekend. I will have a 'booth' space with a 6' Gridwall Tower for six framed works and two print racks for matted originals. Been prepping for weeks but will likely forget something!

What advice do you have for someone venturing into the art show world for the first time?

Cheers!
