We are excited to announce that our Advertising and Vending is open

In 2025-2026 we've continued to grow and expect even more growth this year! We've settled into our venue at Madison Area Technical College that has given us tons of parking, excellent speaking and vending space, and amazing tech to reach our virtual attendees. We're excited to organize another great guild year!

Once applications are reviewed, approved vendors will be invited to pay for their $300 vendor slot. Vendors are expected to provide their half page article the month prior to their vending month, as well as two door prizes of $25 each (can be products or gift cards) for in-person and virtual door prizes at their vending month's meeting.
