Mid-century modern furniture, lighting exhibition this weekend at convention center

Mid-century modern furniture, lighting exhibition this weekend at convention center

Founded by Bruce Metzger in the mid-1990s, the show has been described as “one of the best modern design shows in the country.” After three decades of producing the show, Metzger has decided to retire. Sisters and entrepreneurs Jenni Button and her sister, Jess Button, who began as admirers of the event, recently became the new owners.

“It’s been amazing. My background is in global event planning and hospitality, and Jenni managed a Mid-Century gallery in Chicago. Then, we also own Vine Collaborative, which is a boutique marketing agency. So, our skills have just been great to get into this. It’s been really exciting, and it’s something that we both enjoy,” said Jess Button.

Growing up around their parent’s estate sales business in Dayton, the duo has also experienced vintage resales. The Button’s had previously participated in the 20th Century Cincinnati show at various times, and they made it a family event. Under the sister’s ownership, the show will boast an additional title as one of the largest women-owned Modernist trade shows in the country.

“When this opportunity presented itself, like Jess said, with our skill sets being such a perfect marriage, this just made so much sense. I worked in a Mid-Century Modern furniture gallery that also housed contemporary artwork, and I helped to create the art program for the gallery … So, I was familiar with the Mid-Century scene from that. I also worked in several other galleries in Chicago. Then, with Jess and I’s background working with our parents, it almost seemed too perfect,” added Jenni Button.

20th Century Cincinnati’s tradition of featuring a special exhibit each year will continue under the Button’s leadership. The idea for the exhibit is to showcase the different aspects of design. The 2023 exhibit will highlight the life and work of Edgar Sforzina, an artist, architect and designer, who was an innovator of Art Deco

Sforzina designed the interiors of several major department stores and celebrity homes. He also played a major role in designing the interior of Union Terminal. Admission to the special exhibit is free and open to the public and it is made possible through a partnership with the Art Deco Society of Washington D.C.

People from across the country have traveled to Cincinnati to attend the show. Historically, the event has attracted about 3,000 attendees over the course of the two-day event.

We are feeling very grateful this evening for the alertness and quick actions of one of our amazing bus drivers. The video shows a car passing on the right as the bus was stopping to drop off a student. We did seek permission from the student's parent prior to sharing in order to spread bus safety awareness and celebrate the driver's actions. This is a reminder, please be cognizant of our buses on the road and never pass them. nToday our HERO drove a big, yellow school bus!nPlease share to raise awareness for bus safety.
