A two-day, public barbed wire expo to be held at the historic Altgeld Hall “castle” on the campus of Northern Illinois University (Joseph Glidden's land donation for a college) and near the site of Henry Rose's original exhibit that inspired barbed wire. The wire show, held in partnership with the Antique Barbed Wire Society, will feature local collectors and collectors from across the United States. Not a barbed wire collector? No problem! You'll love viewing all the wire styles, taking in the educational booths, and learning local history! Maybe get a barbed wire temporary tattoo?! Fun for all ages!
