NYIGF has announces some exciting changes with Handmade launching this winter: they are further consolidating Handmade in the USA resources on the exhibit floor and are also grouping designer-makers separately from global production craft. They have also partnered with The Crafts Report to offer a free Handmade Networking breakfast for craft retailers opening morning of Handmade, Saturday, January 30 at the Javits Center.
NYIGF will continue to offer C.R.A.F.T.'s retail members complimentary Club GLM Lounge admission for each member and one store store representative during the show. All C.R.A.F.T. members are also offered one free seminar admission. We will have more details about these benifits in the coming weeks. |

You might want to contact the Claims Administrator and advise it of the change of address and request that the curent check be reissued.You can make this request via email to: admin@inrevisacheckmastermoneyantitrustlitigation.com
