The Good Sam Show is featuring three outstanding workshops in the Arts and Crafts Style in addition to our regular Friday workshops. Please see the link below for additional information and details.
Join us for exciting workshops on Friday the 8th, featuring prominent teachers from
all over the country. Friday Workshops will be held at the hotel.
The Silent Auction will be Saturday, October 9th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. There will be wonderful miniatures to bid on. Bid early, bid often.
Sunday, October 10th from 9:30 a.m. to 10:50 a.m. we will have a FREE "Tools and Techniques" seminar for all. It is held at the show venue and will cover a number of power and hand tools, as well as information on roofing, flooring, wall treatments, basic landscaping, and other aspects of making miniatures. Please join us.
Children can make a miniature project of their very own at our free Children's Workshops Saturday and Sunday from noon until 3 pm. They can try building, landscaping, or soar with their imagination before going over to the Children's Sales Table where we have priced miniature items for a child's budget.
We have special classes for children on show Saturday. Children must be pre-registered for these classes. Click here to see our 2009 class listing. 2010 classes will be on the web site in mid to late August, 2010.
