I'm going to Denver four days after this pen show

 

On the other hand, yay Denver now has a pen show! Maybe my next trip back to see the family will "coincidentally" be that weekend next time...

The first annual Colorado Pen Show is a definte "go" for 10-11 October 2014 at the Doubletree Stapleton Hotel in Denver, Colorado. The hotel is quite close to the airport, next to the Northfield shopping village and a short trip to central Denver entertainment, museums and restaurants. There are loads of interesting things to do in Denver and Colorado if you want to come early, stay late or entertain "non-pen" partners.

 

The exhibit space at the hotel is locked down. The organizers are working hard at nailing down some more anchor exhibitors and show sponsors. Check the website frequently for updates to the exhibitor list.

 

Admission for visitors will be low, too.

It's official! The Colorado Pen Show will take place in Denver, Colorado, on 11-12 October 2014. We felt that a good, general pen was needed in the mountain west to compliment store-hosted events. We’re planning for this to be an annual show. Several sponsors (Argent Blue, Ryan Krusac Studios, Two Hands Paperie) and exhibitors are already on board.

The Doubletree Stapleton near the Denver International Airport is under contract for the exhibit hall. Very good room rates ($74/night before 10 Sep 2014) are available at the hotel and can be booked through a link on the show website. The hotel provides complimentary scheduled shuttle service to the Shops at Northfield, Quebec Square Retail Center and Denver International Airport.

Exhibitors: All the info needed to register is on the exhibitor registration page on the website:

• Tables for both days are $140 each with tablecloth and power.
• Wall tables are available on a first-come-first-served basis.
• Wi-Fi is provided.
• Lunch each day for one exhibitor is provided.

 

Admission: Just $5/day at the door, supervised kids under 12 get in free

In addition to the Pen Show, there are lots of things to do in Denver. With over 300 days of sunshine each year and average high temps in October of 66F (19C), it’s easy to predict a high probability of good weather for the show.

We’d love to see you at the show!
