Banquet & awards are a nice touch.

Thank you for creating & maintaining Seawall Art Show as a TRUE Art Show with no buy/sell

This show is a “family” of artists and committee—and that is just as important as good sales in making a great show!

organization team is first class—outstanding! Thank you for the many amenities and southern hospitality. Other promoters
should follow in your footsteps—you’ve paved the way!”

show is magnificent. Had my sales not been good…it would still have been a great event. I commend you and your staff.
God Bless you all…and keep up the great work.”

“What a really nice experience we had with this show. The people here—organizers, artists and patrons have been especially
nice and have made us feel quite at home. The logistics of this show are top notch and on a level equivalent with the larger
shows we have done. What a wonderful awards dinner. We’ve never attended one any nicer. We’ve had a great time and
are much appreciative of your efforts toward furthering the cause of art.

--Floyd Gibson, Eufaula, Oklahoma
