    Join us for Methods & Materials Mania on April 18, 2023 at the John S. Knight Center in downtown Akron.


    Gone are the days of traditional product shows - this year, we are shaking things up and taking a fresh approach to industry education. With a focus on helping professionals better understand the materials and techniques used in building construction, Methods & Materials Mania promises to be an unforgettable event.

Our exhibitors will create a dynamic learning experience leaving you feeling inspired and ready to take on the world of design and construction.
