More on Art-O-Matic 2007

Yesterday I broke the news that there will be not one but two AOM's in the DC area this year.

They are getting two floors (the 6th and 8th floor in the Old Patent Office Building in Crystal City) - each floor is 45,000 sq. ft. and one has around 130 offices still walled in while the other one has been gutted.

I've been in this building many times and it is a great location and very easy to get to either by car, bus, subway or even Virginia rail. There are some great views from all the outer walls. The other cool thing about this location is that thousands and thousands of people both work and live right around this area, and I predict that because all of these people live and work there, this will be the largest attended AOM ever. I will predict 80,000 visitors to this art event.

The official AOM announcement will come February 26, 2007, and online registration for artists will start March 5, 2007, so start getting ready!

Keep an eye on the AOM website for details.

Oh yeah... the event itself will run from April 13 through May 20, 2007.
