Shoppe Object Announces Its Largest Event Ever
Summer 2024 Edition
New York City, NY - July 25, 2024: Shoppe Object, New York City’s leading home and gift trade show, will host its Summer 2024 edition from August 4-6, 2024. The event, set to be the largest in the show’s history, will take place at two premier locations: Pier 36 and Skylight at Essex Crossing. Both venues sold out in record time for this highly anticipated show, marking a significant milestone for the trade fair.
Event Details
The Summer 2024 Shoppe Object will once again feature a dual-venue setup. Pier 36 (299 South St.) will offer a scenic, waterside experience, while Skylight at Essex Crossing (198 Broome St.) will provide a bright and spacious setting. Attendees will benefit from a convenient shuttle service operating every 10 minutes between the two locations, and Shoppe Object is offering free Lyft codes for buyers traveling to and from the Javits Center.
“We’re on target for another record-breaking show. We have more exhibitors than ever before, including many for the first time, and our collection of international brands keeps growing. A high percentage of our exhibitors do not participate in any other event in America, so visiting Shoppe Object is one of the only ways to meet and to see their products in person. This IRL connection might be what I’m most proud of — attracting quality brands from further afield, and introducing them to the very best retailers. It’s one of the things that is truly special about our show, and this summer will raise the bar.”
- Jesse James, Founder & Show Director | Shoppe Object
“We’re incredibly excited to be heading back to Shoppe Object in New York for the August edition — it’s our favourite show and city! Creative, curated brands fill the show from top to bottom at both locations; we’re delighted to be a part of this beautiful event again as seasoned, 4th year exhibitors!”
- Jackie Piper and Victoria Whitbread | British Colour Standard
“We’re launching a new collaboration with Martha Stewart that’s rooted in a shared dedication to beautiful, functional design and American craftsmanship, and we chose Shoppe Object for the debut as it has proven to be one of strongest shows we do globally. We are proud that Martha was an early adopter of Chilewich products and has used them in her home for more than twenty years. The Martha Stewart + Chilewich collaboration reimagines some of her most cherished patterns and palettes in contemporary materials. They’ll be the new classics — both indoor or outdoor.”
- John McPhee, CEO | Chilewich
Artist of the Season: Diane Vaquerano
For the Summer 2024 show, Shoppe Object is pleased to spotlight Diane Vaquerano as the Artist of the Season. A Brooklyn-based artist, Diane Vaquerano integrates her California roots with her El Salvadoran heritage and experience as a graphic designer in New York fashion. Her work features vibrant scenes and portraits inspired by tropical fruits, florals, and the textile patterns of her grandmother’s wardrobe. Vaquerano’s art provides a unique exploration of memory and community.
