PRESS RELEASE FROM JUNK JUBILEE
JUNK JUBILEE, Des Moines, IA - We are excited to announce a new opportunity for junk enthusiasts to “strut their junk” and share their creative vision for repurposing what others have deemed useless at our First Annual Junk Jubilee!
Our purpose is to provide a unique, high quality shopping experience for the Des Moines area attendees. In order to ensure this, Junk Jubilee will be a juried show offering a variety of merchandise.
This event will be held indoors in the 4-H Building at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines, Iowa, on April 8, 9, & 10, 2011. We have chosen this location for several reasons: well marked location that is easy to find, plenty of parking for vendors and attendees, wide overhead doors for loading and unloading merchandise as well as multiple double doors on all side of the building. This brick building is fully enclosed, heated, and has nearly 50,000 square feet of floor space. Also, there will be on-site concessions with sandwiches, snacks, and beverages. No alcohol will be served in the concessions as this is planned to be a family friendly event.
This being our first show, we will be widely advertising through out the Midwest to draw attendees in from neighboring states. We will have our website up and going soon so that we can promote each of our vendors, provide details about the event, and let others know that we are serious about good junk.
We will have a block of rooms with a discounted rate for vendors at two nearby hotels. However, there are several other hotels within a 15-30 minute radius.
For additional information and answers to your questions, please contact either of us.
Happy Junkin’,
