Artist Feedback :
“Wow Farmington, you really showed up! I’ve never sold as many sculptures in a single day as I did on Saturday and the people were so lovely! You’d better believe I’m scrambling to get my stock back up after this weekend!” - Seven Magpies Pottery
“Probably the most organized and prepared show that I can remember, down to the artist name tag with my art on it! :) Thanks for all of the hard work!” - Petrus Martens of Martens Printworks
“It was well run and really fun! I really liked the location and parking for the artists was close and easy. Most importantly, the community really showed up! We had an absolute blast and am really looking forward to next year if I get in again!” - Erika Smith of Sacred Moon Metalworks
“I love the diversity of the vendors and attendees. One of, if not the most, organized load-in for a show we’ve ever done and we do 18-20 shows a year! Everyone was super helpful and knowledgeable. We really appreciated the artist amenities. Sales were very strong.” - Artist
“Art on the Grand is always one of my most successful financial shows. I had multiple shoppers tell me that it’s one of their favorite shows and that this year was the best they’d ever experienced! Love doing this show and the fall one at The Hawk. You keep it to high quality arts and crafts and a manageable number of vendors. You treat the artists so well and are so organized. It always feels like a smooth, easy process. I appreciate the amount of advertising you do in advance and highlight each person’s work to really bring people out.“ - Beth Jensen of Altered Notions
“The professionalism, the very detailed information from beginning to end, and the financial return.” - Artist
“Farmington - You have my heart! Thank you for such an amazing weekend! I’m afraid that if I say any more, the magical spell from the weekend will break. A special shout out goes to Farmington Hills Special Services Department for organizing a fantastic event with a wonderfully diverse selection of artists and a vibrant and enthusiastic volunteer team. The communication is spectacular.” – Pamela Lemons of Mostly Maille
“What do I love most about ART on the GRAND? The town. I love your show.” - Paul Mason
"The staff, the customers, the set up and tear down - this has been one of my favorite fairs that I’ve participated in!” – Sarah Noelke
