With the advent of our change in name from Jade Art Now to Jade Through The Ages to better reflect the diversity of the show, and the economic depression reflected throughout the entire Tucson Gem Show, our Jade Through The Ages Show equaled in sales volume our best show to date. Many attendees commented it was the finest, professional and most pleasant show to date, truly reflecting the theme of Jade Through The Ages.
