For many collecting clubs, societies and associations, their annual convention is a much
anticipated highlight of the year. Listed here is information on many of these events.
We assume no responsibility for errors or omissions in these listings. Contact information
is provided. It is recommended you verify the information about the event you are interested
in attending, particularly if you are planning on driving a great distance to attend the event.
Some collecting club meetings/conventions may be open to members only and not to the general
public. However, in most cases, they welcome new members and the contact can provide information
on becoming a member, as well as information on attending the event.
This listing is developed with the cooperation of the National Association of Collectors (NAC)
and the Association of Collecting Clubs (ACC).
If your collecting club or association has an upcoming convention you would like to have listed here,
please submit the event information at least one month prior to the event.
