Dealers and aficionados of antiques and art now have a new resource for planning their events calendar with the launch of the Calendar of Antiques. The beta version of the site includes a calendar visible by agenda, month or week and active links to show sites.
The site was the result of brainstorming between Eric Miller, partner in show promoters The Antiques Show and Sally Schwartz of Chicago’s Randolph Street Market. Future plans for the site include individual pages for shows and additional supplementary information.
“Our aim is simple—to provide the most comprehensive list of antiques and art events in the U.S.,” says Miller. “We want to be the calendar to be on, and in effect promote the antiques and art industry and introduce a greater portion of the general population to show culture.”
Show promoters are welcome to submit events for the calendar to calendarofantiques@gmail.com. Listings are free throughout 2010. Advertising opportunities are available. The Calendar of Antiques can be found at http://www.calendarofantiques.com, on Facebook, search for Calendar of Antiques or follow on Twitter here: http://twitter.com/showcalendar
