Getting Ready Already.I just checked online a day ago and found the application for the One Of A Kind Show. To my surprise the application deadline is September 23rd for the Spring Show. In the next few weeks I have to build an application package. Now some of you think... Just fill out the form! Let me tell you what they want:
- a biography stating how I got started, where I've show cased. What I've sold. And my education and training in art. - a step by step product description and how my pieces are built and who helps me. - detailed plans of my booth (that I haven't even built yet). Placement, lighting, walls, flooring, signage. - pictures of items to be sold. - price lists - I'm applying for a NEW ARTISAN SCHOLARSHIP, which entails a written assignment stating why I could benefit from the program. - photos of my studio - a $500 deposit - and the filled out application to boot! Wow!!! So I've been at this for 2 days straight!! This is by far the biggest investment I have had when it comes to this dream. I'm figuring that when this is all said and done it will have cost me 7 grand!!! Cross your fingers everyone that I get the Scholarship! This will alleviate 50% off the booth, which will probably run me $4000-5000 (depending on the size and location they give me). 😉 So like they say in poker "I'm all in!" And speaking of poker, gotta go! Off to my real job at the Casino to pay for all this!!!
