“DAI is a fun way to shop with friends while having a drink, relaxing and browsing unique merchandise. They offer items that can't be found at any store, and the people are really friendly too!”
-Rosemary Santos, Berkeley

“I have only been to one DAI event and the event was so well organized and so unique from others that to this day it still resonates in my mind.  What makes these events so chic are not only the uniqueness of the jewelry, clothes, and accessory one can buy, but the ambiance of the place makes a Plain Jane woman into a diva fashionista!  This is a place in which art comes to life in a form of a chunky rings, sparklingly earrings, funky shirts, and shiny wallets!  This fusion is one of a kind and a great success!!!”
-Livy Cabezas, San Francisco

“I just wanted to take the time to let you know that your events are absolutely exceptional, especially the shopping events. They are organized so well and the energy that exudes from each designer/vendor showing off their goods is so refreshing to see and to be apart of. I love supporting all of them. I always find the greatest deals on the coolest things too. The music is always right up my alley and the overall ambiance of all of your events is something you have clearly mastered. I cannot wait to attend your next event.”
-Eliot Simon Temple, San Francisco

“D.A.I. is a fashionable shopping experience. Each event has a unique blend of Designers, Artists and Innovators. The collective effort is a fabulous mix of talent in which a portion of proceeds supports community organizations. I enjoy the ambiance of Medjool restaurant while shopping the best from local artists.”
-Leslie Lum, San Francisco

Vendor Testimonials:

“D.A.I has been a successful show for me. I sell vintage jewelry  and jewelry  made with vintage beads. The customers that attend these events are excited and supportive of the local design community, and have proven to me that they come to these shows to shop! Each show that I have participated in has been well promoted, and I feel the promoter, Lina Shatara, genuinely cares about participants having a fabulous time and being part of a growing designer community. I love the ambience of Medjool and this sets the stage for my company to have a professional space to effectively sell and promote my designs and vintage collection. I am excited about what is to come with D.A.I. because of my positive experiences, contacts with press, supportive shoppers, organizations that it benefits, and of course all the amazing designers!”
-Eden Stein, Twelve Designs: Modern Vintage Jewelry

“I love the ambiance of the show. All the people involved are friendly, helpful and fun and visitors can eat, drink and get their nails done. There are great things to buy in a party atmosphere. I do well at this show and people from it are still buying from me after the show. I had a great day!”
-Monique Fletcher, Dutch Duds

“I had a great time on Sunday, thank you again for including me. I will definitely participate in the next event. I got a lot of good feedback from my booth and did well with sales. Looking forward to the next one.”
-Elizabeth Dayneko, Peachy B

“Thank you for putting on such a nice event!  Aside from enjoying myself and the cool atmosphere at Medjool (and thanks so much for the coffee!), my sales exceeded my expectations, so I will definitely be back for another event soon.  I appreciated having such a good spot in the middle by the bar, and also the assistance from your staff at the end since we had to pack up quickly.  You did a great job pulling in a good crowd, and it
seemed that everyone who bought jewelry from me really loved what they bought--almost fanatically--so I guess I was a good fit! Thanks again, and I look forward to participating in another event soon!”
-Ashley Rogers, Green Halo Designs
