Description
| Celebrating it's 6th year, By Hand has been named among the 2010 Art Fair SourceBook's top 40 art festivals in the United States. By Hand has maintained an unbroken record of rising average sales. Buoyed by the 2008 decision to make the show FREE ADMISSION, its attendance has skyrocketed. We have successfully kept the booth fee low while continuing to offer great services, including drive-in set up and tear down, prepaid labor assistance, complimentary electricity in all booths, and an artist party which gives artists a chance to unwind together. Don't miss the show that Art Fair SourceBook ranks in its top 40, Sunshine Artist has called, "a real class act," and Cool Cleveland describes as "comparable to Boston Mills or Cain Park, just indoors and warmer for this holiday time of year." We hope to have the opportunity to host you among the 225 artists presented at this year's Cleveland By Hand |
