Trunk Show Sale @ SNAG!

Posted on May 14, 2013 by Valerie Brown • 0 Comments

Hey, hope you are all well!

I’m off to the SNAG conference!

But before I leave for Toronto, I am just dropping in quickly to tell you all that I will be in the Trunk Show and Sale that takes place on the last day of the SNAG conference!  I went to the Trunk show at the 2011 conference in Seattle, and I can definitely say you will see all sorts of really cool jewellery that usually is hard to access (in one place).  This year the Trunk show will be weighted towards Canadian artists.

Here are the details:

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!

3RD ANNUAL TRUNK SHOW SALE
Saturday, May 18, 2013 3:30–6:00pm

Fairmont Royal York Hotel
Ontario Room (Conference Floor)
100 Front Street West, Toronto, ON, Canada M5J 1E3

Come shop and purchase work directly from SNAG members at the 3rd Annual Trunk Show Sale! Coinciding with the Society of North American Goldsmiths annual conference in Toronto, Canada, this year’s event offers 2 ½ hours of the latest in studio jewellery. Conference goers and public alike are encouraged to attend this event, undoubtedly the incandescent epicentre of contemporary metal art and jewellery.

Hope to see you there!
