'Afternoon Lindsey
Firstly many thanks for squeezing us in the library at Canford School on Saturday. 'Squeezing' though was the operative word. However beautifully put together your event was it was just too cramped for us in that particular spot ~ not helped by the mother and daughter team opposite us enthusiastically showing off the daughter's stationery by frequently blocking the already narrow aisle.
On the Sunday (yesterday) we went to the Mid-Somerset Show where we pitched up in the shopping/craft marquee. Now, that was a different ballgame altogether: suddenly people could stand back and actually see my wares. The result was a complete change for the better. Phew! We were beginning to lose heart after failing to create any wow factor at Canford.
Anyway, going by this we're hoping that being in a marquee at Kingston Maurward in the autumn (where we booked an eight foot wide pitch) we can engender the same positive reaction as at the Mid-Somerset Show. As for the Christmas show back in Canford School it's really highlighted how we need more space to show off my work properly. Is there any way you could find us somewhere with a wider walkway and a nice wall space where we can position both browsers?
And, finally, last time I looked we were only mentioned online for the Canford Summer Show ~ no mention of Grenville Allen Fine Artist on the Autumn & Christmas Shows. I trust you'll be looking into that while meanwhile I'll be promoting the shows likewise on social media. Every bit of PR helps spread the word!
Thanks Lindsey and all the best
