gatherings at Graham Park

A working park, growing forward

New walls. Deep roots.

The Exhibition Center adds a flexible indoor venue to Graham Park, where agriculture, equestrian events, the Fair, 4-H, FFA, and community gatherings already have deep roots.

The Center connects with the warm-up arena, show ring, activity pad, program support plaza, stall systems, and RV and trailer parking around it.
