Hello folks! September is coming to a close, but this week will be pretty interesting. I’ve been keeping tabs for Artexpo Las Vegas which will be taking place January 27 – 31, 2018.

Since its launch in 2005, Las Vegas Market has become one of the largest trade buyer markets in the United States—and Artexpo is joining the party! Located in the heart of downtown Las Vegas’ vibrant art scene, Artexpo Las Vegas offers exhibitors exposure to the most diverse and unique industry sales and marketing platform in the Western U.S. and provides trendsetting buyers access to the most modern and contemporary artists and innovators in the world. 

This event will host contemporary artists, art publishers, and galleries from all corners of the globe. You’ll see showcases of works of fine art, sculpture, painting, photography, glassworks…you’ll see it all!

You’ll get a look at the comprehensive furniture, home décor, and gift market for five days of on-the-ground shopping, while gaining the attention and purchasing of buyers who are looking to explore fresh ideas, discover new trends, and connect with tastemakers.

 

Here is their Acceptance Criteria:

All applications will be reviewed by our Exhibitor Committee. Before applying, please note:

  • Artexpo Las Vegas only accepts fine art—painting, sculpture, photography, mixed-media work, glasswork, and more—and does not allow exhibitors to display crafts, clothing, postcards, posters, resale items, handbags, jewelry, or tapestries.

  • We are accepting applications now. The deadline to apply is December 31, 2017, but we encourage you to apply early to ensure optimal booth placement.

  • You will receive a booth number when your work has been accepted.

To reserve a space at Artexpo Las Vegas, a 30-percent deposit is due upon signing, and payments are due in full 120 days prior the show.
