Atlanta Show to Hold ‘Jewelry Camp’ for Kids This Spring
The two-day event, slated for March 3 and 4, will see children ages 8 and up in hands-on programs and walking the show floor with their parents.
Atlanta--Organizers of the Atlanta Jewelry Show have announced they are launching a “Kids Jewelry Camp” at the spring 2018 event to help cultivate a passion for the industry at a young age.
It will be held on Saturday, March 3, and Sunday, March 4, and is open to children ages 8 and up.
There will be educational seminars and hands-on, kid-friendly programs during the event. Children also will be allowed to join their parents on the show floor to see real buying experiences.
“Many retailers in our industry are independent jewelers who created or operate a family-owned business specifically with the idea of handing a legacy down to their heirs,” AJS Executive Director Libby Brown said. “Over the last 25 to 30 years, changes in the economy as well as changes in the retail industry as a whole has made owning and operating a family-owned business challenging at best.
“Our goal with the AJS Kids Jewelry Camp is to connect with children whose families are in the industry and help them nurture their interest in the industry by identifying and cultivating excitement and passion for jewelry and the jewelry industry.”
