“We are delighted to announce our inaugural edition of Artexpo Dallas,” says Eric Smith, President, and CEO of Redwood Media Group. “As we grow and expand our nationwide footprint, we are always looking for markets that have a rich community of collectors and industry aficionados. Dallas has a reputable history as one of the country’s most progressive cities in the art world, and we are excited to form a unique alliance with WestEdge Design Fair, an event organization that has a prestigious stature in the design arena. The two fairs are extremely complimentary and a major attraction for all first-time attendees. We anticipate the fairs becoming a staple and must-attend event on the annual fair calendar.”
