2026 Convention Memories & Looking Ahead to 2027!
Friendship. History. Shared Interests. Community.
Our 2026 Currier & Ives Dinnerware Collectors Club Convention was filled with laughter, creativity, connection, and many memorable moments.
Members gathered in Onalaska, Wisconsin, for our whimsical Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, and the weekend truly captured the spirit of our club. From imaginative costumes and beautifully decorated tables to shared stories, collecting treasures, learning together, and simply enjoying one another’s company, the convention was a wonderful reminder that this club is about more than dinnerware. It is about friendship, history, shared interests, and community.
We were delighted by the wonderful attendance and especially grateful to everyone who traveled to join us, participated in the activities, shared pieces from their collections, dressed for the occasion, and helped make the weekend so much fun.
As you look through the photos below, we hope they bring back some favorite memories for those who attended — and give those who could not be with us a little glimpse of the joy and camaraderie that made the gathering so special.

Something New for Our Members
One of the exciting developments coming out of this year’s convention is our decision to create a more robust Members-Only area of our website.
This new member space is being designed to make it easier for club members to stay connected and have greater access to club information and resources. Members will be able to access important information, manage membership renewals, and enjoy additional member-specific resources in one convenient place.
We are especially excited that a Members Forum is planned for this fall, giving collectors a new way to communicate, ask questions, share discoveries, exchange information, and build relationships with fellow members throughout the year.
Our conventions may bring us together in person, but our hope is that this new online member community will help us stay connected long after the convention has ended.
Thank you You for Making 2026 So Special!
To everyone who attended, hosted, volunteered, participated, shared, laughed, learned, and celebrated with us — thank you.
The Currier & Ives Dinnerware Collectors Club is what it is because of its members, and the 2026 convention was a beautiful example of the friendship and enthusiasm that continue to make this community so special.
We can’t wait to see you in St. Louis in 2027!
