The show will be held at The Comfort Inn Toledo South, 2426 Oregon Rd. in Northwood, Ohio.

Thanks a million! Have a great night!

And of course, children under age 10 are still FREE Admission.

I'll be there for both shows.

Interesting experiment. Close enough to let dealers do 2 shows in a weekend, far enough apart they will likely have completely different customer bases.

I will be at the April 9th show as well....

keep us updated on who will be attending / sketching at these shows

I might be willing to make this drive from Toronto
- just a big circle around Lake Erie

More updates will be forthcoming.
I have had some inquiries regarding the Treasure Chest of Art project. Yes, we will be selling some of these at each of the Ohio locations. They are in very limited quantities and are sold on a first come, first serve basis.
Thanks Paul

Still looking for a few more artists for these shows-

are these the old chests or new chests ?
I am interested but was waiting for the new chests

Hi everyone,
I need to sell the balance of the first release, first. There are only 100 chests total between the two releases.Artwork in the collection randomly includes art by artists such as Ken Kelly, Cynthia Narcisi, Katie Cook, Chris Achilleos, and literally, hundreds of others in the complete collection. Also, there is (1) one card by Billy Dee Williams,(Star Wars fame-Lando) which, has not been sold yet. So who knows, it may be in a chest at one of the shows or mail order. There will be additional artists in the second release as well. Please remember, once these are gone, the project will be complete and not be re-released. There are other projects I am working on for the future. I am very excited and can't wait to announce them! So, please, everyone, don't be left out, as these chests are one of a kind and contain 50 pieces of original artwork by various artists from across the globe! Anyone who wishes to reserve a chest, please email me at cecexpo@gmail.com, with a small deposit, we will hold a chest for you,(time payments and shipping options available) so you don't lose the opportunity to own one of these great pieces! 100% of the net profits, less expenses benefit the Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation. www.treasurechest.org.
Thanks a million! See you all at the show(s).
Paul

Paul,

How much are the chests again? I had to back out last year with unfortunate situation with my daughter.

Hi John,
At less then $ 8.00 per card, the chests are 395.00 each. Each chest contains 50 pieces of original art.
Thanks Paul

Don't forget to check the Special hotel show rates. Artist announcements will be forthcoming beginning of the week. Currently, I am in preparation for C2E2 this weekend.
