Congratulations to the 2009 Top Retailer Award Winners

The winners of the 2009 NICHE Top Retailers Awards were announced in a ceremony held last evening during the Buyers Market. Awards were given to 33 galleries and retailers for their commitment to the North American craft community.

Maddi's Gallery of Charlotte, N.C., received the highest honor of the evening, NICHE magazine's 2009 Retailer of the Year award. Owners Diane and Madis Sulg implored fellow retailers in the audience to aggressively promote American and Canadian craft as part of the "buy local" movement. They concluded "Go craft!" to a standing ovation.

The full list of winners appears online at AmericanCraft.com/Top_Retailer, and the winners will be featured in an upcoming issue of NICHE.
