Sunshine Report: #FACArtist2020 Campaign Results
This just in: Augustans LOVE to buy art!
We are thrilled to share notes, emails and feedback we’ve gotten from the Arts in the Heart fine arts and craft market participants after the #FACArtist2020 social media campaign. We created this campaign to run through the entirety of September for many reasons. We were heartbroken to have to cancel Arts in the Heart 2020 but we felt it was best for all involved in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing health concerns.
We couldn’t stand to not talk about the incredible artists who would have been at the festival, though. So we created #FACArtist2020 and promoted an artist per day on our social media platforms. Here is some of the feedback from artists that we featured.
Yes, I received online orders that mentioned they found my jewelry through the mention on The Heart of Augusta website. I really appreciate everything you did for the artists and look forward to be in person next year.
Kind regards, Carolina

Thank you for your support to giving artists an opportunity to keep this online forum open. I truly appreciate your help and promotion of our art. Stay safe and healthy and until we meet again in person.
I’m sending you a virtual hug and much love, Ilona

I was very surprised and thrilled to have received three sales during the virtual fair: one during the week prior, one during the show weekend and one right after. I have never exhibited at your event, nor have I ever shown in Augusta, so I know it was entirely due to your marketing efforts! I THANK YOU for that and will look forward to participating in future events.

I just wanted to drop you a note and say thank you. A local real estate company bought 11 pieces to decorate their new office. They saw my art on your post, so big thanks.

Good morning! I hope this finds you well. I wanted to let you know I have received two sales from the online platform, and many people have come by to look at my website. I appreciate to work you have put into helping with sales during this time. I’m looking forward to meeting you next year at the show!
Thanks,
