West Coast Art Collectors FairSeminar Series at the San Francisco Fine Art Fair - May 21-23, 2010

In the Theater on the show floor- admission free to all attendees.
Seating is limited and available on a first come, first serve basis.

The 3 day conference is designed to provide art collectors valuable insights and hard-earned  advice on building an art collection. Sessions are geared for both beginner and experienced collectors. As the only such conference like this in the nation, we are recruiting a world-class level of speakers. Each session will be filled with usable tips, distilled facts, do’s and don’ts  and lessons learned -in a fast-paced , user-friendly format- without  sales hype or academic treatments.  Some sessions will be solo presentations, others, moderated panel discussions.
