DECOpalooza Live
Your first question is, “what the heck is a palooza?” Well, it is our version of a Lollapalooza, which Webster describes as, ” an extraordinary or unusual thing, person, or event; an exceptional example or instance.” Well, get ready for an extraordinary event, The DECOpalooza, a don’t miss event. Many of you may recall, we launched the original Decorating Lollapalooza many years as the very first online gathering. Each time we repeated the event, we had a great response, so it is time for DECOpalooza…LIVE!
Have you ever attended a gathering where learning and shopping took equal billing? Well, this is your chance. The Decorating and Staging Academy is delighted to team with AmericasMart Atlanta to offer an event totally unlike any thing you have ever attended before. The DECOpalooza will feature two days of learning from 8 AM -1 PM and then the afternoon can be spent shopping the Mart (we tell you how to do it effectively) or you may take advantage of other special events. 
The really unique feature is YOU, as together we will build-a-palooza which based on your desires, will determine the agenda, simply take our quick survey and tell us what you want to learn, review or explore, and majority will rule. Help us Build-a-Palooza. ( if it works for build-a-bear, it can work for us)
