White Plains, N.Y. —

The New York International Gift Fair next January will introduce a new business-to-business section called The Licensing Gallery @ NYIGF.

Set up as a resource to put surface designers, artists and licensing agents in contact with gift and home manufacturers, the gallery will debut at the winter 2010 event from Jan. 31 through Feb. 3.

The Licensing Gallery will feature a maximum of 30 participants and will be located adjacent to At Home featuring Home Textiles, Ex·Tracts, and Personal Accessories featuring Details, on Level One of the Javits Convention Center. Participation in The Licensing Gallery will be limited to exhibitors in the May 2010 edition of Surtex, the George Little Management show for surface art and design.
