First, we would like to thank each and every one of our dealers that have supported our family adventure and shows. Many of you have been with us for every show and we truly value your support, friendship and co-commitment in helping Arizona Antique Shows grow and prosper for you, the Antique Community and us.
Wanda and Robert Jones,
owners and promoters of Glendale-based Arizona Antique Shows LLC, are announcing
their shows filled with homespun family fun for antiques enthusiasts and novices.
"It's like wandering through Grandma's attic, but with fun for all ages
from one end to the other," says Wanda.
Two of the company's largest shows are scheduled in January 2005. On January
8 and 9, Yuma's 31st Anniversary Show and will feature more than sixty feet
of oak furniture from Nielsen Antique Furniture of California, which specializes
in Country French, European and Early American styles. Also available will
be Victorian era antiques, vintage jewelry, pottery, Early American primitives,
ornamental glass, clocks, Western items, military memorabilia and other collectibles.
The same venue, with the addition of an antique appraisal panel clinic, featuring
Valley of the Sun Antique Dealer's Association (VSADA) and live entertainment,
will take place on January 14, 15 and 16 at the Arizona State Fairgrounds
Convention Center in Phoenix. Proceeds from the clinic will be donated to
NAMI (National Alliance of Mental Illness, AZ Chapter). This year's January
show will be a '3' day show and held in the Coliseum as the Phoenix Home and
Garden Show will also be there offering Customers a FULL day of events.
Arizona Antique Shows have included Antique Workshops in the Phoenix antique
market so attendees can learn about various collections and ask questions
of industry experts.
Arizona Antique Shows
Now in its sixth season in business as Arizona Antique Shows, LLC …the
Joneses have applied their sixteen years experience selling antiques together
to revive the Arizona market. "We're proving to dealers and customers
that we're committed to bringing Arizona back into the nationally recognized
antique circuit," says Wanda. "We're drawing people to our shows
from all around the world."
The Joneses have created a brand of antique shows that includes a balance
of business success for dealers and an enjoyable experience for shoppers.
November 2004 regained momentum with 155 booths. The show increased drive
and was able to offer the antique community 180 booths and three buildings
in January of 2004. Wanda is very enthusiastic and says she is looking forward
to what the future can hold for Phoenix with energy and drive saying, "Where
dealers have experienced a continual decline in overall sales in most other
western states, the Arizona Antique Market is ready to burst wide open.
