"Connoisseur Kulture is a representation of what is cool in modern underground culture. C.K 2011 Wholesale Expo was created to engage in a forum that gives store owners a unique opportunity to purchase goods that are the newest and hottest brands. These brands usually have a bit more meaning than just surface value. The Creators of this event are a group of people who inspire today’s society. Our group is made up of artists, designers, intellectuals, scientists, educators, and philosophers. C.K 2011 Expo promotes progress in all directions. The artwork and intellectualism that has become a modern artistic renaissance is highlighted at the exposition. The vast network of imaginative, intuitive and inspirational figures will congregate and share ideas that fuel the industry."
Connoisseur Kulture is the newest tradeshow, organized by Jerome Baker. The event also includes "The World's Greatest Flameoff:"
