* New! Printed Booth Numbers/Signs for each booth, to help people find you. As well as an expanded printed directory and guide.
* Our non-profit partner is...
Every show, Unique LA partners with a local charity in order to raise awareness and supply them with a donation - $1 for every paying attendee goes to them (last December they gave close to $5000 to Dave Egger's 826LA). :) This show's non-profit partner is Ed Begley Jr.'s GreenWish, a great grassroots non-profit charitable organization that is focused on helping local green organizations fund projects for their communities through "pay what you can" donations at local retailers and online. Small, local organizations like Algalita.
