Looking Ahead

A Note From the Impressions Team

As we look to 2022, we at Impressions want you to know our mission in serving this community is stronger than ever. We will continue to provide value with a suite of events and products that offer solutions that will help you grow your business while continuing to connect with us at different touch points and in meaningful ways.

1. Face-to-Face Events: We are committed to holding our regional Impressions Expo events in 2022, starting with Impressions Expo Long Beach in 2022, which will be held Jan. 21-23 at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center. We want to continue connecting our community, whether it’s on our show floor as you connect with exhibitors to source blank apparel, equipment or supplies from various exhibitors; networking in the aisles with industry peers; or in the classroom as you learn from industry experts via our best-in-class impressU conference program. The latter also includes an on-demand video platform, impressU Online, that offers the same stellar education with 24/7/365 accessibility.
2. Impressions Magazine: For more than 40 years, Impressions has been the industry’s authority as a resource for helping apparel decorators grow their businesses. In 2022, we will continue that tradition by offering dynamic educational content that will help you thrive in what will be a dramatically different landscape. From apparel trends to different decorating techniques, and everything in between, Impressions will continue to provide you with information you need to stay steps ahead of your competitors.
3. Health and Safety: With Impressions Expo being the premier meeting place for the decorated-apparel community, it’s of paramount importance that we strive to protect the health and safety of all attendees and exhibitors as we commit to hosting face-to-face events in 2022. We will continue to monitor COVID-19 and follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and implement the appropriate protocols, where appropriate or mandated. We will continue to monitor COVID‐19 and follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and local government regulations, and implement the appropriate protocols, where appropriate or mandated.
4. New Content Platforms: In addition to impressU Online, look for a new podcast in 2022 that will feature conversations with apparel decorators, industry experts and more.

As always, thank you for your support in 2021 and we look forward to continuing to serve you and connect everyone in our community in 2022.

Sincerely,
