From Guangzhou East, take metro line 1 to Tiyu Xilu, transfer to line 3 to Hanxi Changlong, then change to line 7 to Beijiao Park, then transfer to Foshan Line 3 to Tanzhou Convention & Exhibition Center.
And yes, Line 3 is still operated.

Yes. Foshan Metro has line 2, line 3 and Guangzhou - Foshan Line.
From the airport, take Guangzhou Line 3 North Extension to Jiahe Wanggang, transfer to line 2 to Shibi, change to line 7 and get off at Beijiao Park, then transfer to Foshan Line 3 to Tanzhou Convention & Exhibition Center.
