Canton Trade Days

December 30 thru January 2, 2011

What started more than a century ago as a flea market, has become home to some of the most exciting, cutting-edge home furnishings, antiques and collectibles that can be found anywhere. Over the past 150 years, lots of things have changed in the Original First Monday Park; but, the genuine, down-home human relationship between vendors and shoppers is the reason people keeping coming back. This is a place where you can slow down, visit and ask questions, talk to collectors and antique dealers, and meet the artists and craftsmen who create one-of-a kind items.

The world’s largest outdoor trade days takes place Thursday through Sunday before the first Monday of every month in Canton, Texas. Every month, thousands of vendors from across the country turn this friendly East Texas community into a shopper’s paradise where you can find the rare antiques and collectibles, furniture, fine home decor, arts and crafts, clothing, jewelry, tools, produce, and much more. Make plans now to come to Canton and enjoy the First Monday shopping experience.
Every time we feature First Monday this year we will give you some different information that you may need to make your shopping experience more enjoyable!.

Every Thursday at CAFE TAZZA there are local artists showing their works and musicians performing for you. Check them out at http://www.caffetazza.net/http://www.caffetazza.net/Art_Music_Series.html

The Road to the Top Starts Here
Jan.7 thru Jan 9
It is time once again for the East Texas Golden Gloves Tournament. This year will mark the 71st Annual Tournament, sponsored by The East Texas Golden Gloves Association, a non-profit corporation.

This year we are excited to be hosting the tournament at The University of Texas at Tyler Louise Herrington Patriot Center.

Boxing in the local area continues to grow and so does the talent. We have an opportunity to send more
athletes to compete at the state level this year. Golden Gloves is one of only three avenues that a boxer follows to make the USA Olympic Boxing Team. The East Texas Golden Gloves Association was proud to have Luis Yanez, from Texas, make and compete in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Our athletes have been working hard to train and try to make the 2012 Olympic Team.
This year with the local talent, we are hoping to have someone from East Texas to compete at the national level.
