With spring right around the corner, many people turn their attention to starting (or finishing) those much needed home improvement and outdoor living projects. If you’re looking for inspiration or information from local and regional professionals, mark your calendar for this year’s Texarkana Home Builders Association’s Home & Garden Show which will take place from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, March 26. Open to the public, this year’s show will take place at Crossties Event Venue, located at 324 East Broad Street in Downtown Texarkana.

Builders, remodelers, home and garden suppliers, landscapers, and other related companies will take part in this Home Show. In addition, landscaping companies, lenders, and other specialists will offer expert advice to anyone who needs guidance on their home project. Whether you are thinking of building your “dream home” or remodeling your existing home or planning long overdue maintenance, this show is the perfect opportunity to gather information and ideas while also learning about new products and services. Many new vendors will be present during this year’s show. “As of February 16, we have seven first-time exhibitors signed up, so attendees are sure to see something new!” states Adam Pettit, Executive Officer of the Texarkana Home Builders Association.

A large local attraction, this show offers consumers the opportunity to meet with many businesses that make up the building community ... and all under one roof. A special event this year, Farmers Bank & Trust will give away two $1,500 gift cards where recipients can spend them with any member of the Texarkana Home Builders Association. (The winners will be announced at the show.)

Chartered in January 1959, the Texarkana Home Builders Association is affiliated with the National Association of Home Builders. Its goal is to promote the local building industry through partnerships with its members. Currently, there are 29 members of the HBA, and general membership meetings are held every quarter. In addition, members enjoy giving back to the community by supporting local advocacy and education efforts.

Approaching the 30th anniversary of the Home & Garden show, the Texarkana Home Builders Association members appreciate the support of the Texarkana community. Anyone who desires to turn their home improvement needs into a reality should set aside time to attend this year’s Home & Garden Show. It is the place to be to meet with experts face-to-face, see the latest trends, and find valuable local services so you are equipped with the knowledge you need to build the home you’ve always wanted.
