The Fenton Centennial Celebration
continues!
Rated in USA Today as one of the TOP 10
tours in America, there is simply nothing like the Fenton
Factory Tour. Watch raw materials become molten glass which is
shaped by artisans in the age-old tradition. Furnaces glow;
sparks fly, and from heat, noise and motion emerge works of
art that captivate and delight.
The crafting experience showcases the talent of skilled
artisans painstakingly handpainting each piece, and ends in
the Gift Shop where an artist handpaints glassware to customer
specifications. The Fenton Museum highlights mid-Ohio valley
glassware from 1880 to the present.
