Vendors
The MABA/Milwaukee 202Two offers a limited square feet of space for a marketplace. The marketplace is the best place to find unique bonsai material, both raw and already styled, and the best possible place to find the specialized tools, stands and other equipment. We are going to great lengths to entice the best of the best to bring their wares to Milwaukee. This will be THE place to find your next tree, your next pot, your next… well, anything your heart may desire.
We are pleased to announce that we have many exceptional bonsai vendors ready to display their work. The 202One convention will feature a Thursday evening reception dedicated to the vendors that made the trip to Milwaukee. Full registration attendees will have an opportunity to view the vendor area before anyone else. This is a unique opportunity for attendees to make their purchases early. Make plans to join us to meet the vendors and make your early purchases.
Auctions/Raffles
The 2022 convention will feature a Friday evening “Silent Auction” and a Saturday evening “Live Auction”. As in years past, we want to encourage everyone to bring trees, pots or tools for these fundraising activities.
If you have attended past MABA conventions, you know that a great way to get material at a fraction of the actual cost is to participate in one of five raffles held twice Friday and Saturday and a closing raffle on Sunday of the convention. We are expecting a variety of bonsai related material and supplies to be donated. Purchase your raffle tickets at a special discount with your full registration and receive 80 free tickets.
