IDAL Heading to Texas for 2014

With the 2013 IDAL Convention just behind us the Board of Directors announced that they will be heading to Texas next year in a brand new venture! In what is sure to be a fantastic success the IDAL Convention will co-locate with the Concrete Décor Show.

The event will take place at the Ft. Worth Convention Center, Sept. 30 through Oct. 3, 2014.

Incoming Board President Theresa Cheek, already a resident of the great state of Texas, proclaimed this a Win-Win for both shows. Not only does IDAL have a large member base in Texas but the opportunity to have two successful events side by side will draw many new exhibitors and attendees to both.

So "hold your horses" as they say down there, while we work on all of our plans for exhibitors, teachers and artists and please watch for details to come on this site as we get ready for TEXAS 2014!!

IDAL will be at Metrocon this year! If you are in the Dallas area and want to get inspired by local talents, please plan to attend.
