The 2010 AtlantiqueCity show has been canceled. The annual antiques show scheduled for March brought in collectors from around the country and the world.
The producers of the show F+W media announced their new plans to move the show out west to build their new customers base.
“Given the uncertainty surrounding the current economic environment, we believe it’s in our best interest not to produce the AtlantiqueCity event next year and to notify the Antiques and Collectible community of our decision now,” said David Blansfield, President, F+W Media.
“The resources within our Antiques & Collectibles team will instead focus on new opportunities within our changing marketplace, and we’ll engage with the community about these new initiatives immediately.”
All dealers who signed up in advance for AtlantiqueCity will receive a full and complete refund of their deposit monies as soon as possible. Any questions regarding deposits should be addressed to Karen Thulien, Events Coordinator. She can be reached via e-mail at Karen.Thulien@fwmedia.com.
“There are immediate opportunities for us to produce events in the Midwest, closer to our core communities, as well as to continue to develop Collect.com and our Antiques & Collectibles Community online,” Blansfield added. “Our focus will shift to organically growing these new businesses.
