This weekend is the annual arts fair in Bellevue, WA. I mention it because if you have never been and are in the area you can have a chance to see a juried event, where the booths cost $750-1,050 and people there make a lot of money. Besides the usual glass, jewelry, and paintings, this one usually has some really nice woodworking, in fact this year they are going to have a daily woodturning demo by the American Association of Woodturners. Anyone here involved in it?

There are 325 exhibitors chosen out of 1,000 applicants
and last year 340,000 people attended. Plus there are two other smaller art/craft festivals adjacent.

I plan to go early in the morning and get a jump on the crowds.
