DIY Festival Art Display Walls - Tips For Artists 

This video did not serve my needs but I stayed for your person in the background who was killing me with the funny comments. 💜

You guys make a GREAT stand up comedy routine. Thanks for the morning chuckle. 🤣♥️. This is a perfect wall for a newbie to art shows. 😊 👩‍🎨

Thanks for sharing and putting the link in the last video!

I made a set today!! I had to improvise a tad but I think it'll work great! About to add a couple hinges and then I will test it out. Thank you so much for the tips!

We are currently building "Panels" to use at shows right now! Thanks for the encouragement!

Y'all are too funny together. Very helpful videos on this channel. Glad to have come across it.

Thank you. Very helpful. And creative.

Thanks for sharing and being available. So helpful to get some input in this compatible art market

Thanks for this video! Even though I won’t be building anything out of wood, your tips give me some inspiration on building my own walls! 😁

Great idea. I never though of using shade cloth. I will try it. Thanks

Thank you so much! Exactly what I need.👏 I'm going to make these.

Very clever thank U

Thank you Rafi,thanks for all your help

This video makes more sense and Is easier to follow then some of my attempts.

You are my hero!

One day , you will show us how to make the roll wall things you mentioned... love you two munchkins

This is the first of your videos I've seen. I don't know who the wonderful woman behind you is but I love her. Y'all are both great. :)

Thank you! Hoping to do my first show in September! :-D

Very helpful 💙💙 Thanks for sharing

Very handy tutorial

Hello!!! Love this tutorial. You said you would do another tutorial of a roll-up wall... have I missed it?? If not, PLEASE DO ONE!!!! YEA!!!!! Thank you!!

Prossibly the absolute best 😎

The commentary is great!

Thanks so much for this video! I want to make movable walls to create a small gallery space in my art classroom . Do you think I could use thin plywood on that frame? How about putting them on castors to make them movable?

Very very helpful... thank you so so much ... these walls are totally epic ❤and actually very beautiful ❤❤❤❤...please make more videos 😁

Thanks for sharing!! How do they stand? Please do the roll wall too!!! Merry Christmas to you both!!

Hi there! I loved this video on building your own walls. I did build my own walls however I’m curious to know how you secure the walls to the tent poles, like a “stabar” etc. I built 3 sets of (3) 3ftx6ft panels and put hinges on them to collapse them. I use paracord on the top corners to secure to the post hooks with camjam cord hook tighteners. But there has to be a better way to secure them in place. What do you do?

You could also use the triangular metal picture hangers that you screw into the back of your canvas. If you use one on each corner and use the curtain hooks to hang them you will not have to worry about the wind skewing the way your art hangs on the fabric wall. They can be purchased in bulk online fairly inexpensively. I find the wire to be annoying when trying to get the tension just right.

I enjoyed your tutorial. I will be doing my first show in June. I am under a pavilion and I have two picnic tables. I was thinking of something that sits on the tables, maybe shaped like a roof that has hinges on top that you can sit out on top of the table and it would be about the length of the table. Does it sound tacky? I think it would work. It would hold my canvases but the back sideswould be wasted underneath. Any thoughts or advice welcome.

I am thinking of framing pegboard panels. I would still hinge them. They should stand on their own but I could also do L brackets on the back like feet..Maybe hubby will help me..

Hello Rafi and Klee! I love your videos and podcasts because they keep me feeling inspired and motivated. You're even making me think I should try doing a festival again! Your display walls are very cool, and much nicer looking than the hobo walls I came up with, but how in the heck do you keep stuff from flying away?! I've done a total of two outdoor art festivals, and while the first one went ok - I didn't sell anything, but I did meet a bunch of nice people - the second was a total disaster because of wind. I had weights, cinder blocks, velcro, duct tape, zip ties, stakes, and rope. I even tried canopy 'walls' which kept individual paintings from flying as far but then just made the entire canopy start singing "I BELIEVE I CAN FLY" despite all the weight. Nothing helped and I had artwork crashing down and flying into the ground right and left, and I ended up having to tear down after only an hour even though it was just a tiny 8 mph wind. It was so embarrassing being the only artist that couldn't handle a gentle breeze, it was frustrating loosing the money I paid for renting the spot, and a little heartbreaking with the damaged artwork - so I've sworn off art festivals ever since then, convinced that they just aren't for me. What was I doing wrong? Please share your wind survival tips!

Rafi is there a specific shade cloth fabric that you would recommend? Also my Timline Tent has 8ft walls and i'm wondering how am I going to get the panels in my van? Loved your video and I;m excited about trying to tackle this project.

your a nut lol. and I love the background commentary from the other nut lol. I thought you did very well and I for one will be doing this exactly how you said to. it's a great idea. kudos to you. I'm going to subscribe to your channel cause I'm a nut as well!!!!! keep on doing what you do. peace!

How do the walls stay up? What do you use to hold them down especially on concrete?

Really helpful. What do you put on the backs of your art work to hang on the curtain hooks???TKS

I do not understand why you hung the paintings on the “back” side of the panels or is there a front and back side of the panels. Thanks for your gracious sharing. I do like the sun screen cloth idea. Magnificent!!!

Very helpful DIY! Thanks. How are you getting these walls to Stand?

Thanks for sharing, enjoyed video. I want to build these walls now. Do you think I'd be able to hang the thicker gallery wrapped canvases on it? (1.5" sides) Or be too much weight?

Really helpful video, great idea for lightweight frames/walls, thank you Rafi! Please can you do another video explaining about what drapery hooks you use, and how you attach them to the fabric so it doesn't rip it? Cheers! :-)

Hello Rafi, I enjoyed your video on building walls. What do you use to keep the walls in place? Do you hang them with zip tags or did you build a base for them?

Hey RAFI, did you do that tutorial on making the walls that are a roll up style? Would love to see that !

This is great - except that at one show, the fire department came around and checked to see that everyone's displays were fire-proof. Luckily mine was, because at the time I was using Pro-panels (out of Texas) and they used fireproofed fabric in their panels.

I bought a second hand folding room divider, it has fabric for the "privacy" parts, i want to take that out and replace it with something else to transform this into my folding art wall. I was thinking of getting some criss cross fence panels. Your thoughs?

She is hilarious 😂

Thank you so much for this! Love the light weight. Question: Do you used kiln dried 1x2's or just common wood?

This is amazing idea! Thank you so much! Any idea how much weight it can hold? Thank you.

Love the comments😂, great wall Project

Nice video. Did you ever make the video were the screen rolls up and hangs at the top ?

awesome, palm springs, ca.

How would the shade cloth handle some spray paint to make more attractive?

I don't paint very large... but they are all framed. I'm not sure how much weight the shade cloth would hold befoie it would rip? Doing a show in June...

Thanks I’ll check them out How do You sell your art?

Rafi, this is prolly a dumb question, but do you "need" a cord on the back of the canvas before you can use the drapery hook? I'm sure the answer is yes... but I don't have time for all that. I am not the artist... my huz is, and he is in an art show in three days and we have no walls, no hooks, no tent, no clue... Thank you for any advice on how to pull this off and for the video ! :)

Awesome! Do they stand up on their own or do you add something to them?

We do an outdoor market near the beach and wonder how to secure the panels against the wind. Really do not want to 'hang' them from the tent. Any suggestions?

You never pointed out HOW you attach them to the canopy to be sturdy enough to stand on their own. How are they attached?

Use Dacron . It is what the aircraft industry uses on wood wings.

Hi! How would you prop it up in a tented booth?

do you have the other video of the roll up style art wall ?

Hi Rafi do you just have 2 panels on a hinge. I am trying to attach 3 together

How do you make them stand up?

THANK YOU!!!! I hope you creat the roll up one soon!!!

Grat idea but how does your wall stand ?

How much weight can each panel hold? Do you ever hinge them together to make them into a freestanding V? Thanks.

How do you stand them up?

How much weight will the shade cloth hold? Trying to hang framed artwork--matted framed, with glass. ?? 10-15 lbs

How do you stand it up?

Enable auto captions? I'm Deaf and want to learn how to improve my festival art installation concepts.

Like room dividers.

Can you show your whole display with your home made walls?

Rafi, how much weight do you think that shade cloth could handle? I'm thinking of some of the frames I use, they can add a lot of weight to a panel and shade cloth doesn't seem that substantial. Klee was in fine form for this video, btw! hahahah

💞💞💞💞💞💞

I wish I saw this before I made my pegboard walls. Mine work but weigh a ton...These look a lot lighter.

Gridwall panels are close to $100 for a set of 2'x 8'

I can see me doing this in my apartment and taking them on the bus.

What about a wall for art that isnt on a canvas such as something framed. A wall like yours here would shred from the weight.

Did u do the tutorial on Toll roll wall?

Lord, I hope she was not serious about having no wall and letting everyone in. Lol she's funny but the tutorial was great

I've found great handbook on woodprix website. Good solutions for everyone I think.

This time I'll use woodprix instructions to make it by my hand :)
