ATLANTA—The Atlanta International Area Rug Market is once again honoring the finest rug introductions with its annual America’s Magnificent Carpets (AMC) Awards, and is calling for manufacturers and importers to enter their products.

AmericasMart rug exhibitors may present up to two introductions. Categories are handmade, power-loomed, antique and contemporary. Exhibitors can now submit entries online at americasmart.com/jancarpetawards. Space is limited, so entries will be accepted on a first-come basis. The deadline to submit a product is Dec. 30.

All entries will be displayed in the Museum of Introductions (MOI) Jan. 7 to 10 during the 2010 winter edition of the Atlanta International Area Rug Market, and winners will be announced on Jan. 9, at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis.
