How ODCCA Began

On March 15 - 16, 2025, the ODCCA is holding its 46th Annual Vintage Decoys & Wildlife SHOW and SALE.

In 1963, a group of decoy collectors met in the Cleveland area to share their interest and knowledge about this artform first created by indigenous people.

In 1976, the ODCCA was organized with the goal of holding an annual show and sale. 

Thanks to our dedicated volunteers who have kept this show going for 45 years!
