FREE ARTS AND CRAFTS FAIR AT DECOR DIRECT MAY 18TH

Sarasota, Florida – Decor Direct, an importer of handcrafted furniture and accessories headquartered in Sarasota, Florida, is pleased to announce that it is sponsoring an Arts & Crafts Fair on May 18th from 10am – 4pm.

The general public is invited to attend the event, which will be held at Decor Direct's distribution warehouse located at 2542 17th Street in Sarasota. Decor Direct is also offering a Free Lunch of New York style hot-off-the-grill hot dogs and drinks during the event, with any and all donations going to the Humane Society of Sarasota County.

"We're looking forward to a fun event, where our customers and the general public can discover and purchase the works of local artists and craftspeople. It's part of our corporate mission to support both the local arts community and animal shelters, and this should be a great venue, where our local customers can munch a hot dog, and mingle with the Sarasota artists' community", said Decor Direct President Anthony J. Minicucci, by telephone from Thailand.    

A limited number of vendor booths are still available, and they are being offered first to local artists at either no charge or a nominal charge, depending on size. For more information on the event or about Decor Direct, please call Celeste Gruenstein at (941) 365-5757 or go to www.decordirect.net.
