The 30th Annual Home Show will take place next weekend, March 16-18, to showcase the latest examples of interior and exterior efficiency and style.
Hours are from noon to 5 p.m. Friday, March 16, and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. March 17 and 18 at the Antelope Valley Fair & Event Center, at 2551 West Avenue H in Lancaster. Admission is free; daily parking is $5.
This year’s show will feature more than 150 diverse vendors and crafters; and professional Home Show exhibitors will demonstrate their products and offer time and money-saving advice. Newly added to the Home Show is the SMART (Sustainable, Manageable, Attractive, Responsible, and Timely) Water Conservation Expo presented by the Antelope Valley State Water Contractors Association. The Water Conservation Expo will feature seminars for those who are concerned about conserving water, water efficient landscaping, and gardening, with demonstrations conducted by Neal Weisenberger, Glenn Guenther and Denise Keef. Additional seminars will be conducted by various Home Show vendors and the UC Cooperative Extension’s Master Gardeners and Slo Food Preservers.
The craft fair will return with a wide range of vendors, from handmade jewelry and food to decorative handbags, crocheted items and more.
There will be fun for the kids on Saturday and Sunday, including an inflatable obstacle course, slide, bounce house, climbing wall, carnival games and concession stand with souvenirs.
