ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. – Allison Kohler, owner of JMK Shows & Events, will produce the new Atlantic City Antiques and Collectors Show, which will debut March 27-28 at the Atlantic City Convention Center.

The new event will replace the long-running AtlantiqueCity show, which F+W Media announced in September it would no longer produce.

Officials at the Atlantic City Convention Center began interviewing and evaluating promoters who could bring a high-quality show to their venue. On Oct. 2 they notified Kohler that she had been chosen to produce the new event.

JMK Shows, based in Succasunna, N.J., produces antique shows, doll shows and home shows. Allison’s parents, Rona and Jesse Kohler, founded the company in 1972. They are still active in the business.

The two-day event at Atlantic City will combine all categories of antiques and collectibles in one spectacular location, yet they will be separated within the venue. Antique furniture and furnishings will be set up in one area, toys and ephemera in another. Vintage clothing will have its own designated section, as will fine art and dolls.

For one admission, attendees will be able to visit and shop from several specialty shows under one roof. For dealers, this means attractive booth pricing structures depending on their specialty, said Kohler.

“I am honored and welcome the opportunity to create, reinvent and rebrand an event of this caliber in Atlantic City,” said Kohler.
