St. Paul, Minnesota has been the home for the Annual Twin Cities Arts & Crafts 20th Century Design Show & Sale, where Arts and Crafts collectors travel to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds for the in-person show and sale. The annual show and sale remained the largest event in the Midwest region featuring mission furniture and accessories of the American Arts and Crafts Movement; among the selections offered to the excited showgoers were metalwork, pottery, textiles, art, and lighting, a wide selection that Midwestern Arts and Crafts enthusiasts took advantage of.
