Urban Expositions

I found out that Art Palm Springs is produced by the same people who produce SOFA Chicago and I have loved that art fair for many years. Bring more galleries from Chicago to Art Palm Springs!

It was the worst show I have attended in my 32 years.We were pre registered but the lady said we have never been there before. We were not even in the system. The lobby looked terrible. Some of the venders were very rude. We were cheated by a cash and carry vender because we took a picture of the items and just paid thinking they were honest but found otherwise. I am trying to get that resolved now. If not I will give you there name.

I have been attending the Seattle Gift Show twice a year since 1974. This was by far the smallest show woth the least amount of vendors...ever. So disappointed in the show. We’ve given feedback for years, asking that the first show of the year not be on Superbowl weekend and not be the same weekends as another show in Vegas, Atlanta oe NY. Unfortunately, our advice has not been conidered. Maybe they should move the show back to Seattle Center or the Trade Center where more vendors could afford the booths to participate.

In the middle of a national health crisis, the Javits Center along with the Event organizers made every effort to keep us safe. Well done.

A weak variety of vendors. No inspiration, mostly same old stuff. Noticably fewer exhibitors. Floor layout was distracting, awkward, annoying. We did not need to be forced into the souvineer show. There were some vendors with crude and off color merchandise which was an embarrassment for my buyers.

Wish there were more exhibits on healthy food. There was not enough but the exhibits we did visit were very good and we were well informed

The quality of the artists and galleries represented was way below of the quality I have seen in the past seven years. I was really shocked to see the decline in the quality of the exhibitors.

Very good professionals help me to generate valuable business contacts.

I had to go looking for places to sit while meals were served. There were no signs and people were sitting on the floor in the halls. Need better directions.
