International Flameworking Conference
Who's going to the International Flameworking Conference?
If you didn't know, this is a GREAT (and very affordable!) conference which happens in southern New Jersey. Very laid back, but lots of incredible demos and suppliers galore!
March 16-18.

I want to go but I think there are too many bridges in the way. I'll have to pull out a map this weekend and figure it all out for sure!

I'm going! I'll be there all 3 days. This is my first year for the conference, though I've been to glass classes at Salem Community College. I'm very excited!

So how will we recognize one another???? Maybe I'll wear my "got tink?" shirt or something.

Maybe we should wear name tags that say "Hi my name is: JRANDRUP on LE".

Since we do get name badges, we write "Member of Lampwork Etc" on our badge as a way to identify ourselves. We could also pick a table in the gynasium for lunch and all meet?

Hey Tink! It will be great to see you and John again!! Wesley, looking forward to seeing my ol' buddy and "younger twin"! 
This conference is a very low key and casual conference. It's small and fun to mingle with all the various artists and characters. Wear your bead work! How better then to be recognized! Don't forget to submit something for display in the special exhibit.
I'm so ready to get out of this cold Chicago weather  !

Ofilia, what is the special exhibit?
Okay, forget that question! It's amazing what can be learned from reading (duh!) Well, I'm psyched, and looking forward to meeting everyone there!!!!!

Ofilia is talking about the "Community Exhibit." Everyone can bring a piece of their work to be put on display for the duration of the Conference.

As if I'd put any of my work on display in that crowd. It's a humbling experience.

It seems last year was the first time the "Community Exhibit" was held. Does anyone who was there last year know approximately what percentage of attendees submitted work for the exhibit (rough guess)?
I was all enthusiastic about doing this till I read Emily's post. Okay, that was a reality check!
So, is anyone here going to exhibit their work???
Note to self ~ don't knowingly embarrass yourself!

OK, I should say -- I've only gone one year, and they didn't have a Community Exhibit that year. But the quality of the people who demonstrated was awesome. If I were Wesley and Ofilia, I'd go right ahead and display some things, but I'm not. (And I don't know if I'm going to make it this year, anyway -- definitely not for the whole thing, possibly for one day).

Some of the display pieces were submitted by current students at the college. Go to http://www.PictureTrail.com/gid15569836 and you will see some of the pictures I took from the exhibit.

I didn't exhibit last year in the Community event.. but this year, I rediscovered (after cleaning out a closet) a little display I made that holds three fish, so I'll bring it with.
There is no reason to be shy! If we don't show what we got, what's the sense of making it?! Be proud.... show us what you made! I can't wait till Friday!!!! Yea, get out-a-town!!! I'm so cabin fevered out .

Room sharing?
Hello!
Looks like I might be able to actually make the conference! I'm looking forward to meeting all of you folks!
I don't have a room reserved yet though. Is anyone seeking a room share by any chance? Holiday Select, as I hear it, is the preferred one.
Hey Tink and John, looks like I'll meet you sooner than July! woohoo!

Eeck. I just got my huge Lauscha order in and I think I must just run away from home instead of unpack it all. If I do maybe I'll run down to N.J. I guess it all depends on how the rest of the week goes!
