INAUGURAL PALM BEACH CONNOISSEUR FAIR TO BENEFIT THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF PALM BEACH COUNTY

PALM BEACH, Fla. (March 12, 2004)—The Historical Society of Palm Beach County has announced it will be the beneficiary of the preview evening for the inaugural Palm Beach Connoisseur Fair, planned for January 6 – 9, 2005 at the Cohen Pavilion at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts in West Palm Beach. The boutique-format show is a departure from the large art and antiques fairs and festivals now common to the area. The new show is specifically designed to provide visitors with the “best of the best” in art, jewelry, décor and collectibles in a more intimate, personalized setting rather than the standard exhibition hall format. The show will launch with a Preview Party on January 6, providing a select audience with the opportunity to meet with and purchase from the elite international and national dealers presenting at the show.

“Our goal was to stand apart from the crowd and create the ‘gem’ of all the local shows when it comes to quality and overall experience,” said Historical Society Executive Director, Loren Mintz. “The Palm Beach Connoisseur Fair brings that intimate, exclusive element back to the arts fair while answering the demand of the affluent and discriminating shopper looking for a highly unique and broad selection.”

The Palm Beach Connoisseur Fair, organized by James Crystal Productions, will also feature a lecture series with some of the leading names in fashion, design, décor and collectibles. Details for the event, including the list of exhibitors and lecturers, will be announced in the fall of 2004.
