A Show with Strength
It’s the impeccable quality, unique character and wide variety of work shown that makes One of a Kind a show like no other. It is the presence of each artist on site that brings One of a Kind to an unparalleled level of quality and individuality. It is the incredibly high volume and quality of attendees and onsite purchasing that truly demonstrates the success of the One of a Kind Show and Sale.
Premier Timing and Location
The show is scheduled during one of the busiest shopping weekends of the year, in the weather-protected indoor environment at Pier 94. This venue provides a convienient accessible location in the heart of Manhattan. This former freight pier from the 1950's is a massive venue with 175,000 square feet of space. The pier is almost column free and has skylights, concrete floors, and 24-foot ceilings. A sophisticated booth configuration showcases work to its best advantage.
Extensive Advertising and Promotional Campaign
A targeted advertising, marketing and public relations program covers the New York area in all critical media: newspaper, magazine, radio, and outdoor advertising, direct mail, partnership marketing, and a corporate ticket program.

Unique, pre-event and on-site visibility opportunities, including exposure in show promotional and advertising material are offered to promote the sale of your art and create interest and excitement among the show’s visitors. Additionally, we produce a special offer postcard promoting the show for each artist to personalize and send to their clients encouraging them to visit the One of a Kind Show and Sale NY. We produce a promotional kit for each artist in order to maximize their participation through public relations, direct mail, on-site demonstrations, and other promotional opportunities. We also offer complimentary entrance tickets for our artists’ use and an exclusive VIP program for our artists to target their most important clients.
Our One of a Kind Promise
Our One of a Kind Show visitors tell us they come to our shows to discover unique and beautiful items they don’t find elsewhere. In order to maintain the high quality of the show for both visitors and artists, we promise that the show presents artists’ original work, not the work of mass production studios. Your work must be presented in a finished manner and not be made with kits, purchased molds or purchased patterns. It must be merchandised in a creative and artistic booth environment.

Through our comprehensive marketing programs and highly attended special events, we bring you the right audience ready to buy. We also focus on supporting your needs as exhibitors.
