The event will be held at Hibdon Hardwood in St. Louis on Saturday, April 23rd from 9 am until 4 pm. Hibdon will be offering a discount to registered guests on the day of the event. Hibdon processes a ton of exotic guitar woods and we are lucky enough to get a behind the scenes glimpse of their wares. We are in the process of setting up some demonstrations for the event.
If you are new to the craft, PLEASE don’t be shy about displaying your work (warts and all). I understand the trepidation! When I went to the first show, I almost left my instrument in the car. Boy was I glad I didn’t! You will not be judged or criticized, but you just might get a tip that takes you to the next level.
If this sounds like something you would be interested in, contact me via PM (Bryan Bear) here on MIMF with any questions. If you know you want to attend, Email
wiksnwudwerks@aol.com beara55@yahoo.com kenjeffs@sbcglobal.net,
any of us can help you. If you want to be added to our email list for Email notice on show ONLY please forward us that email . We Do NOT SPAM .
In order to recoup some of the cost of putting on this event we have solicited the opinions of past attendees and come up with a fee structure that people thought was fair.
* Exhibitor registration is $20 and includes a table to display your work, access to the demos and lunch.
* Individual registration is $10 (Demos and lunch)
We also are trying out a $5 level for nonluthiers/players who would like to see the displays and chat with builders. This is something new we are trying to get started to allow people to show up and learn more about the craft and maybe even decide a handmade guitar is something they just can’t live without.
Thanks
James Wud Lindley
