Come to see the magnificent miniature works of art called buttons! Whether you are fascinated with their artistic quality, want to examine their material and construction, or seek to delve into their history, there will be buttons for everyone for sale by dealers in all price ranges.
In addition, the show will feature educational displays and a judged button competition. On Saturday morning from 10:30-11:30 a.m., a discussion of the educational exhibits will take place in the showroom.
The National Button Society, organized in 1938, is structured around the study and dissemination of information about these fascinating, utilitarian to ornately ostentatious little items we use every day. The Wisconsin State Button Society was founded in 1944 and has local chapters across the state. Members are involved in collecting buttons, appreciating their beauty and learning about their history.
