March 30, 31 & April 1, 2012
Carlson Center - Fairbanks, Alaska
A Woman’s Affair took place at the Carlson Center April 1, 2 and 3, 2011. This was the 10th year for the annual event and it has grown into a highly anticipated spring happening. Next year's dates are scheduled for Mar 30, 31 and Apr 1, 2012.
A Woman's Affair is a trade show organized specifically for women about women. This total women's show is a place to make contact with women owned businesses, discuss important health issues, get tips for managing finances, become aware of new career opportunities and education possibilities, see the latest fashions, enjoy a makeover or massage, pick up new home-decorating ideas and gardening information, or discover a new hobby...all under one roof.
The 2011 event was a great success. Over 150 different businesses and agencies participated and the two-day event had a public attendance of 3880, our biggest weekend ever! Vendor response was very positive and many have already signed up for the 2012 show. The public loved the "feel" of the show and enjoyed the opportunity of gathering educational information and shopping. The seminars that took place throughout the weekend were a huge attraction and were well received by all who attended.

Friday Night Wine Tasting
Friday evening, April 1, opened with a wine tasting. The evening was sponsored by Image Optical with wines courtesy of Gold Hill Imported Beer and Fine Wines and K&L Distributors. Like the rest of the weekend, the event was a huge success and we can't wait to do it again next year!
