Are you a creator or performer?  Here are some great reasons to buy a table and be a part of the conference: The most important reason for having the show is to create the chance for collaborations between different types of creators and performers, to help each other to meet each others' needs.  For example, the film industry is coming to Michigan;  film-makers need authors to write stories, storyboard artists to plan shots, wardrobe artists and jewelry makers to outfit their cast, sculptors and crafters to make props, and more!   Further, as creators sign up for tables, we can work on setting up social events after the dealer room closes. Once we know all the creators we have, we can arrange special informal panels and networking events. The only people allowed to buy tables are independent creators unlike other shows, you won't have to compete against thrift stores, book stores, or collectors with "bargain bins" or "vintage video." Not only are the tables priced low, they come with THREE passes, so you can share your table, have a friend attended, and still get a chance to see the show! This show has reasonable hours!  Doors open at 11am, when people really get going on the weekend, and run until 7pm, giving late risers a chance to come and shop! As a special bonus, a $200 cash prize will be given to the best table and the best performance, as determined by guest ballot! Last, and most importantly, it takes creators working together to make a show a success.  We can all succeed together, as long as we all participate! Only 10 Dealers' Tables are still available for only $70 each, including THREE memberships (limit one table per exhibitor), until December 31, 2009, when prices rise to $70.
