High Point Market, Esteem Media to Create Design Bloggers Tour

August 5, 2015  by in Designer Weekly   

The High Point Market Authority has partnered with Esteem Media to develop a Design Bloggers Tour for the October Market.  The bloggers tour will bring a group of 10 design bloggers to the Market for a three-day tour of sponsoring showrooms.  The tour will include a variety of activities including education and a VIP networking event.  Participating bloggers will visit the sponsors for an up close look at the exhibitors’ company, showroom and products during a 30-minute presentation and tour. 

 

The tour will kick off at Market’s opening event at 9 a.m. in the High Point Theatre with a panel discussion about “Design and Sense of Place: How do geography and aesthetic relate?”

 

Magazine editors Elizabeth Ralls (Atlanta Home & Lifestyles) and Kyle Hoepner (New England Home) will moderate the panel.  Esteem Media produces the Design Bloggers Conference each year.

 

“We are very excited to partner with High Point Market on this unique project; a natural extension of our Design Bloggers Conference project, designed to promote quality online design content and community building,” said Japko. “It will be great exposure for the bloggers we recruit and hand-pick to touch and see the up-and-coming trends, and a great opportunity for participating exhibitors to promote their products.”
