I travel throughout the country for Fine Art Shows and this is by far the most organized and well run Art Show I have ever done. LOVE the new location.
Your treatment of artists is the best I’ve ever experienced. You make the artists feel valued and heard.
The crowd was huge, the venue über-accommodating and VAC staff helpful and well-informed.
