Photo Gallery: Midwest Collision Repair Trade Show & Conference returns to Kansas City

For the second year in a row, state collision repair associations from the Midwest combined efforts for a trade show at the Overland Park Convention Center in Overland Park, Kansas. For the 2023 Midwest Collision Repair Trade Show & Conference, the Iowa Collision Repair Association, Kansas Auto Body Association, Missouri Auto Body Association, Nebraska Auto Body Association, and South Dakota Auto Body Association presented the "Highlighting the Year of the Technician" as their theme. There were about 60 exhibitors for the May 19-20 trade show, which was open Friday evening and Saturday morning, and 15 educational programs, all with free registration. Here are highlights of the Kansas City-area event.
