ARKANSAS’ LONGEST-RUNNING CONSUMER HOME TRADE SHOW
Smiatek noted that the HBA-GLR-sponsored Home Show is the state’s largest and longest-running consumer home trade show. She said keeping the show fresh and current is one of the key reasons for the longevity.
“Our vendors work very hard to stay abreast of popular trends,” Smiatek said. “Changing lifestyles and new tech- nology call for new approaches to making today’s living spaces more convenient and comfortable. We’re all looking for ways to improve our lives, and one way we can do that is to improve our living space.”
Smiatek said she believes the show is a golden opportunity for attendees to see what’s trending in interior and exterior home design.
“The Home Show is a fantastic opportunity to learn firsthand what’s new in building techniques, technology, custom features, décor and products for the home. Certain- ly, you can do a fair amount of research online, but there’s nothing like seeing things firsthand and being able to talk directly to builders, designers and vendors. That’s the real beauty of the Home Show,” Smiatek said.
SPONSORS MAKE IT ALL POSSIBLE
The Home Show would not be possible without the tre- mendous support of generous sponsors. The HBA-GLR would like to thank this year’s Platinum Sponsors, Kaufman Lumber (booths 45, 46, 47, 51, 52, 53) and Casa Blanca Granite, Marble and Tile (booths 48, 49, 50), as well as Gold Sponsors, Inside Effects & Outside Effects Inc.
