It is the final count down to the biggest and "bestest" Ventriloquist convention on the plant!
Grab your keys, suitcases and get to Hebron Kentucky for this great event!
last year they relocated to the Airport Marriott in Hebron Kentucky and it is a great venue with wonderful amenities!
The line up shows and vendors is top notch. If your a performer, collector or fan of ventriloquism this IS the place to be!
Check out the schedule for this year:
LOOK at the line up! Jeff Dunham! Terry Fator! Taylor Mason, Paul Zerdin, and So many more! WOW!
The dealer room has everything you can imagine and even some things you might not have thought about. Be sure to check them out!
This year the convention is the theme is
“Celebrating Clinton and Adelia Detweiler” Vent Haven ConVENTion 2013.
Clinton and Adelia Detweiler owned and operated the Maher School of Ventriloquism for many years after purchasing it from Madeline Maher in the early 1970's. My first books and training came from them when I was around 13. Always there with help and answers and a great selection of puppets, books, and accessories. Sadly Clinton passed away earlier this year, but he will be there in spirit.
After years of talking to them over the phone I finally had the honor of meeting them in person at teh 2008 Vent Haven ConVention.
While at the convention they do a tour of the
Vent Haven Museum! This is a must see for everyone whether your a Ventriloquist or not. This collection was started by
W.S. Burger and is maintained today by the greatest group passionate to keep W.S.'s dream alive.
If you cannot go to the ConVention you can still contact
the Vent Haven museum and arrange a tour.
Hope you can make it!
Have a safe and happy Summer!
Chris and the Gang.
