Would you like to network key manufactures, leading retailers and businesses who are discovering trends and sourcing original designs? SURTEX® is that place – it brings together the owners and creators of surface art design with business owners and brand licensing companies looking for unique art, patterns and prints for commercial use.

Nerida would like to invite Patternfield subscribers to show their work at SURTEX® which gives you an opportunity to show your work on the worlds best stage for Art Licensing. This is an exclusive invitation, that is not compulsory but highly recommended.

The Patternfield booth is a collective space at the show, which runs over 2 days on the 9th and 10th of May, 2023 at the Metropolitan Pavillion in New York City.

If you want your own branded booth, we can help you with that too. But at over $3600 for a single small booth, the expense is sky high. Even though taking part in the Patternfield space is shared, it will be a very large, beautifully curated space to capture the imagination of every buyer who attends Surtex.

Each artist gets a chance to present 24 large A1 prints, and can double their experience by registering on a choice of 2 booths, in the Atelier (Buyout Area) or the Art Licensing Space. You do not even have to attend, our experienced Patternfield staff, who are seasoned Trade Show Attendees will be there to represent you.

You can also have up to 48 prints on our digital show, which will run for 45 days after Surtex closes, to ensure you can close deals with interested buyers, AND expose your Surtex work to new buyers who cannot attend.

Inclusions:

  • 24 x A1 Prints (or double that if you sign up for Atelier AND Art Licensing Areas)

  • Inclusion in the Patternfield@Surtex Digital Art Show online

  • 30 Postcards for display at Surtex

  • Individual Social Media Post leading up to the event

  • Free Trade-Show e-Guide to help you with pricing, client negotiation and portfolio presentation

  • Live Q & A sessions for participants

  • Free Trend & Colour Direction to 2024 including all the key colour directions across fashion & home

  • Contacts of all buyers who visit the booth during the Trade Show
