gonzaiYep. I put in 11 straight hours in the art show yesterday. There were precious few volunteers available, so I stayed all day, except for when I was off on emergency supply runs. Never even went upstairs.
BTW - artists are morons. Not speaking of myself, as I can read basic instructions, use common sense and ask questions if I don't understand. But 80%-90% of them - morons. I unpacked and hung art for 9 mail in artists - 1 sent return postage. Another didn't send return postage but otherwise her mailing was correct. The other 7 - one disaster after another and all of the artists' making because they didn't read the freakin' instructions, use common sense or ask a question. Oh, and when everything related to the art show says you must register for it by May 1? That means you register by May 1. Not walk in at dinnertime Friday and say 'here's my art'. There is no room left. We gave it all to the people who registered. And oh yeah, if you don't pay for the space? You don't get the space. Period. Gack.
