Each new exhibitor for us is a valued partner in a long-term relationship. The American Made Show will only review work that is designed and produced in the United States or Canada.

The American Made Show offers lifetime tenure to its exhibitors, as long as you continue to participate in the show each year and your work remains consistent. You will automatically receive a new contract each year; return it by the deadline and you will be guaranteed a booth.
