Why Market with OAEA?

The Ohio Art Education Association (OAEA) is the leading professional membership organization exclusively for visual arts educators in Ohio. Members include elementary, middle, and high school visual arts educators; college and university professors; researchers and scholars; teaching artists; administrators and supervisors; and art museum educators. OAEA’s mission is to build a community for visual art educators by promoting professional growth and leadership. 

Our OAEA annual conference is the largest, most comprehensive professional development opportunity in the state.  ​The conference rotates around the state between Columbus area, Cleveland area, Cincinnati area, Toledo area, and Dayton area. Our attendees tell us each year how much they appreciate seeing and testing products in person in the Exhibit Hall. As a vendor, you will make this personal connection with hundreds of prospective customers. 
​

What products and services are attendees looking for when they visit your conference booth? Attendees love to discover new products, concepts, and techniques intended for all skill levels and ages. They are looking for materials, ideas, and services ranging from classic art supplies to up-to-the-minute media, technology, processes, professional development opportunities; curriculum resources; college and university programs; visual aids; painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, woodworking, ceramic, glass, and metal arts supplies; art-related travel; graphic design, technology, photography and drafting supplies; and more!   In-person conference booth rental allows you to connect with attendees through hands-on activities and demonstrations.

There are a variety of ways to participate in marketing with us throughout the year (even if you cannot attend the November conference). Advertising in our magazine ARTline, on our website, e-mail, and social media allows you to target our full membership across the state of more than 1100 art educators. Visit our website at OAEA Marketing for opportunities including advertising in our ARTline newsletter (published three times a year), advertising on our OAEA website, advertising in our conference program and/or in our conference materials tote bag.
