ART, the creative home furnishings network will hold their annual conference April 2 – 5, 2020 at the Marriott Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa. The 2020 program will feature programming that includes seminars, hands on workshops, social events and pop-up interior design focused programming.
Steelyard will be involved in the conference planning process as a joint collaborator. ART is also planning a community service project in the Fort Myers area during the conference.
“We’re excited for the opportunity to collaborate with this year’s team of partners. Including the retail and interior design prospective is so vital to understanding and building productive relationships among our members and the industry,” said Sharon Davis of ART.
Molly Mays of Rizzy Home and ART Conference 2020 Co-Chair says, “Conference is one of the most exciting events of the year! We can discuss and collaborate with our peers outside of a typical market. Having this time to learn from each other is invaluable to our business. I always leave conference feeling excited and empowered — we are all about learning, service, and having some fun along the way.”
“Going to ART Conference is my favorite work trip of the year! There’s nothing like being able to cross product category lines and really dig into the weeds about issues that plague our industry. We all have the same roadblocks, and brainstorming solutions so we can all move forward together is imperative and inspiring,” said Santhi Yarlagadda, KAS Rugs and ART Conference 2020 Co-Chair.
“The connections made at Conference and the conversations that take place every year help me grow our business creatively and efficiently. I can’t wait for everyone to see what we are planning for this year’s Conference,” Yarlagadda continued.
Program sponsorships are open for reservations now. The full program and registration for attendance details will be available in January 2020.
