Artists! Three Publicity Opportunities!
At BMAC, February in Philly for participating artists.
1. By moving Table Topics to our show room booth, we expect the booth to be livelier, with lots of buyers will be stopping by. Would you be interested in creating a small display of your work at this booth? We will provide a sign that tells people who you are and where they can find you. You will have to provide a display case and create the display. You will also need to think about the fact that the booth will not be manned at all times or overnight.
2. Do you have cards or pamphlets that you would like us to put in the two CRAFT booths for buyers to pick up?
3. The booth for the Design Challenge will be on the Concourse next to the CRAFT Booth. Store and studio owners sign up to create a display in 10 minutes using props and craft work provided. Each display will be photographed and a panel of judges will choose the winners - 9 in all. You have two ways to publicize yourself:
a. Let us borrow a piece of your work to be used during the Design Challenge. We will put a sign with your booth number in the Challenge booth.
b. There will be prizes for the displays juried to be the best. Would you be interested in providing "Artist Script"? This can be any amount of your choosing but I would suggest nothing less than $50. The winners of the challenge can use your script to discount a wholesale order from you at your booth. You can set the rules on the use of the script...for example, for a wholesale order only of at least $275.
Thank you. |

Table Topics at BMAC
We are moving BMAC Table Topics to our educational booth on the show floor during show hours. They will be FREE and short - 30 minute power seminars. There will be artist related topics scheduled at 9 AM so artists can participate too. We would love to know what topics you would be most interested in. Please take 4 minutes to complete this short questionare to let us know your thoughts. Even if you are not attending BMAC, please go ahead and complete the survey, to help us plan for future programs.
We are also looking for people to lead tables, both artist and exhibitors. If you are willing to volunteer please contact Donna Milstein at donnamilstein@hotmail.com.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT
Vinosus Jewelry
Since 2002 Vinosus Jewelry has been enhancing people's lives with architecturally elegant hand made jewelry. Designer Martin James Kneeland with business partner Brit-Simone Sutter strive to amplify people's happiness, spirit and poise, in harmony with harvesting successful business relations and growth.
"In jewelry design, there is a balance between the influences of travel, architecture and natural shapes that catch our attention combined with a need to provide what people gravitate toward most.
Discovering alternative ways of constructing beautiful jewelry also has its place in the process and it is our responsibility to balance artistic expression with business savvy so that we not only create delightful designs, but profitable ones as well."
Vinosus Jewelry designs are fabricated untilizing mostly silver, brushed or antiqued, with some gold, gems, pearls and diamonds. "We often hear how refreshing and unique Vinosus Jewelry is and how our customers receive endless comments on the pieces they have chosen to wear."
Vinosus Jewelry will not be attending the winter trade shows, but you can order through WSC, or visit www.vinosus.com. Call Brit-Simone at 206.898.1542. Turn around time is usually 1-2 weeks.
