From Tent to Triumph!

For the Artist Ready to Hit the Road, Show Up, and Thrive
This book is for artists who already know the art-show circuit is part of their journey — and for those who have been doing shows but want stronger results. If this is your first time considering a show and you’re unsure where to begin, we recommend starting with Booth to Bank: Start Smart before jumping in here.
This isn't a theory. It’s practical, honest guidance from an artist who has spent ten years on the art-show circuit and built real success doing it.
Success at shows comes from preparation, mindset, and flow. This isn’t about “trying” a show or hoping the sales will appear. It’s about being intentional, organized, and professional — ready to step into the show world with purpose and thrive in it.
And what do you gain most? Confidence in what to do, when to do it, and how to make each show part of a strong, sustainable art career.
Because when you show up with purpose, you don’t just fill a booth. You build a business.
