Coming to the Show
New Location As of 2023 the new home for our Show & Sale is Heritage Presbyterian Church in Mason, Ohio. There is ample free parking, and the building is handicapped accessible. From the parking lot, follow the signs to enter through the double glass doors in the courtyard. You will find our Registration table a short distance down the hall. Miniature exhibits can be viewed in nearby classrooms, and the salesroom is the gymnasium.
New Hours Our new Show hours are 4 to 7 pm Friday and 10 am to 4 pm Saturday. Pay admission only once to shop both days.
Museum Quality Exhibits Be sure to check out our members’ beautifully crafted miniatures in the adjoining classrooms. With our “Heritage Holidays” theme this year, we’ll be showcasing a variety of holiday traditions, in miniature of course!
Cost Admission to our sales area is $5 per adult and $3 for each child from 4 to 12 years of age (children under 4 are free, but please do NOT bring strollers or backpacks into the salesroom). Note that we accept CASH ONLY; we cannot process credit or debit cards for Show admission. Pay one admission per person, keep your wristband on, and come back to shop the second day FREE. Just show your wristband at the Registration table.
Just for Kids We have a sales table Just for Kids (12 years of age and younger), where all items are priced under $6, and they may receive a free door prize selected especially for them.
All-Day Door Prizes We announce Door Prize winners periodically all day long. Drop your door prize ticket in the chimney of the “house” near the Door Prize table. Put your tickets in early, as you MUST be present to win.

A Little History
Our 44th Annual Show & Sale… Forty-four years is a long run. What an adventure! In the early days our shows were held downtown at the Cincinnati Convention Center. MSC members who were around at the time tell wonderful stories. Apparently, the 70’s and 80’s were the heyday of our hobby. Our club had around 150 members and Show attendance used to be over 1500 people!
