Don't pay attention to that stuff. Event Lister lists tons of events, and many of them are for craft fairs where people make stuff themselves (artwork, clothing, jewelry, etc.) and there are juries at those shows who give awards to the top people at the show. They're more of an "art exhibit" than a sale, although people do sell their wares there. I would not go near an event that is for juried artists as a PC consultant - we really don't belong there. I would only go to events in your area where direct sellers are welcomed, since we don't make our own products in our basements like those other people do! HTH!
