Even though I was featured in the 2007 version of this book I have to admit that recent editions have been disappointing. There aren't many new sources to send your promotional materials and queries to. The ones who remain in the book are just regurgitated entries from previous years. Perhaps it's time for Artist's & Graphic Designer's Market to call it a day and cease publication. Either that or commit to a complete reboot with all new entries. As a freelancer with over 30 years worth of experience I have to say this book has fallen upon some hard times.

Disappointing. I bought it in part because they promise free access to their web resource, so when it arrived I eagerly went online to sign up. The resources they tout in the book include supposed samples of designer contacts. Well let me tell you there is absolutely nothing of the sort on their website at all! False advertisement at its worst. When I contacted customer support I received no reply! The book itself is just a regurgitated version of the old editions. Don't waste your money! Better go and self promote on FB. You will get more business than from reading this book.

Yet another rehash . . . . same old same old. Perhaps two or three of the listings are appropriate to the kind of work I do (modern design). Really disappointing.

This was a gift for my niece. She liked it but I think it should have included more art contest.

Fabulous reference book. The magazine section alone is worth the price of the book.

Well put together informative, "go to" book which has helped me find out different outlets to show/sell my artwork. Plus, so much more!

It's a big read so barely into it but I believe it's what we were hoping it to be
