National Insulator Association

Past Regional Shows

Note that the NIA will support up to two Regional shows in the regions not holding that year's National. Note that there have been fewer Regional shows in recent years due to the expansion of regular large local shows across all regions. The overall health of the hobby and number of active shows has been very strong in recent years. Thanks to Jacque Linscott-Barnes for most of this list content.
