It’s crazy making time again! As I’m writing this column to you now, I realize I am sublimating my own anxiety about the coming weekend that I also am personally invested in. I thought as a service to us all, I would bring in some BOS experts–people who have been here for a long time and people who help to manage the whole deal. They were busy of course, but generous in sharing with us.
Read through all the advice, it’s totally worthwhile—but if you’re too busy creating and planning; as your trusty advice columnist, here’s my summary of the most consistent thoughts I found throughout the expert responses to my call for advice to artists and visitors.
Advice For Artists: Take a break for an hour or two each day so you can see other people’s work. Also it’s a seriously special time for you to meet people and make connections—make the most of it, but you can’t control it, so relax… Also professionalism counts. Open on time, have business cards and a sign-in sheet.
