Welcome to the 2025 Marias Fair Open Class!

I am excited to announce that all things Open Class, including the office (with the exception of Chickens, Rabbits and eggs) are now in one building. The Mercantile!!!!

Also starting this year I will pick a theme and this year it is Chickens. After all-Open Class is something to cackle about!

What an exciting year to celebrate the local talents of our community! The Open Class portion of the fair gives residents of all ages from Toole, Pondera, Liberty and Glacier counties the opportunity to participate in the fair by exhibiting poultry, rabbits, garden plants, foods of all kinds, creative projects, and homemade & handcrafted items etc. Participation in the open class is free.

Please feel free to register your entries and exhibits online to speed up the check-in process. Some of the lots are not listed in alphabetical order so you may need to look at the bottom of the list to find your item.

You have the opportunity to win ribbons and premium money for the items that you enter. We will be able to cash your check at the Open Class office in the Mercantile Building.

Please pick up your entries late on Saturday or call or text me to arrange pick up. The website to register your items and animals is mfopenclass.fairentry.com

Good luck and I will see you at the fair!
