Dallas Market Center has announced its cancellation of the upcoming March Markets and April Design Week, following government directives in order to support a healthy and safe marketplace as well as a larger obligation to public health.
DMC President and CEO Cindy Morris said, “I want to quickly add that similar to stores and shopping centers across the country, we will remain open for daily business, and our open-daily commerce including showroom appointments is vitally important. We encourage buyers to reach out directly to showrooms in order to make or confirm appointments. Likewise, we will be posting a list of the hundreds of open showrooms to social media and our website. To maintain a safe and healthy marketplace for all visitors, we will also continue to make extra efforts including additional cleaning of vulnerable surfaces and added hand sanitizing stations.”
Earlier dates have been rescheduled for summer. Both June Apparel & Accessories Market and Dallas Western Market will take place June 2-5. The summer edition of Total Home & Gift Market, Lightovation, and KidsWorld will each be held as scheduled beginning on June 24.
“Speaking personally, in uncertain times like these we must be there for one another. That means open communication but also keeping our doors open and continuing to welcome customers with a friendly smile. While our behavior may be temporarily changed, we will continue to lead with our hearts and we will get through this together,” added Morris.
