American Style Magazine Names Fine Furnishings Show “Essential”
It’s the setting, history and range of crafts that make each show not just another event to attend, but an experience to share. Appreciate tradition juxtaposed with innovation. Enjoy. And if you make only one resolution this year, make it to attend craft fairs year round. So say the editors of American Style magazine in their annual guide to shows they consider essential to attend. We are proud that the Fine Furnishings & Fine Craft Show – Providence made their list!
