Greetings, fair people of the Mask club!
I'm so very excited to say that I have my very first art fair coming up May 14th! I'm planning to go all out with leather items along with my customary paintings and books. I'm currently trying to plan my setup and make it the best it can be. Thanks to a very generous family, I have carpet walls I can velcro and pin things too and some plastic folding tables for a basic setup. I even have a mannequin head to display a mask on (and plan to get a few more if budget allows!)
Right now, I'm finding myself stumped about how to display more than just a couple of masks on mannequin heads. Table space is limited since the flat surface will be used mainly for portfolios, prints, and jewelry. I can fit a couple of mannequin heads or small tiered shelves at the corners, but I'm wondering if any of you know of clever ways to display masks on walls? Do you know of any places I can purchase tiered shelves? I'm aiming to keep things small, light, and/or collapsible so it will be easy to transport.
How do you display your masks at fairs? Any photos of setup you might have to share to help an art fair newbie out would be much appreciated! Time is ticking down and I need to think of solutions fairly soon in addition to prepping stock for the fair!

Saying Farewell!
Right, so this has been a difficult decision for me and I know I mentioned earlier that I might be able to still run this group if I had Staff come on board, but honestly, I know myself and I have a bad habit of taking on more than I can chew!
I need to make a clean cut here because I have too many projects and career moves going on in my life right now. I've had a really great run here getting to know you all, but now it's time for me to move on to other projects!
If anyone is interested in taking over this group, please se

My friend Larry Wood uses the super large PVC pipes as poles and ties his masks around the pole. They are about the same diameter as a head.
