Destinations: Tacoma Home and Garden Show January 25-29 at Tacoma Dome
Saturday, January 14, 2012
Over 1,000 exhibits, the new "Vintage Market," spectacular display gardens, a kitchen and bath showcase and a full schedule of "how-to" seminars headline the big line-up at the 29th annual Tacoma Home and Garden Show, January 25 to January 29 at the Tacoma Dome.
The state's largest combined home and garden event is bigger than ever -- introducing visitors to a huge range of products and services available to help with all their home, indoor and outdoor decorating and improvement needs.
New to the show is the "Vintage Market," with repurposed and "shabby-chic" treasures for the garden and home from over 30 local vendors. This new shopping area within the show includes unusual and one-of-a-kind home décor items, vintage signage, furniture, garden art and more.
Two new idea-generating showcase kitchens will be created under the dome by the Puget Sound Chapter of the National Kitchen and Bath Association. Sponsored by Viking, this display spotlights the latest generation of appliances, cabinetry and labor-saving features. Gardeners will be inspired by the feature gardens created by top area landscape contractors, including SK Landscaping, Marenakos Rock Center, and the Washington Association of Landscape Professionals.
The show also assists home and garden do-it-yourselfers by offering around-the-clock seminars presented by some of the region's top experts. Some of the first-class speakers sharing their tips in presentations during the five day show include Ciscoe Morris, Marianne Binetti, Marty Wingate, Melinda Myers and others.
Show hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., Wednesday and Thursday (January 25 and 26);
10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday (January 27 and 28)
10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sunday (January 29).
Admission to the show is $10 for adults, $8 for seniors (62 and older) weekdays only, free (with ID) for American Horticulture Society Members and free to children 16 and under. Two Day Passes are $16 for adults and $12 for seniors. Weekday Discount Coupons are available online.
