Meet the Artists Furnaceworking Marble Machine Lampworking
"Marble Crazy"
was first held at the Moon
Marble Company in the year, 1999. Due to its
success and enthusiatic feedback from our artists
and visitors to the event, we decided to make it an
annual event beginning in the year 2000. "Marble Crazy
1999" featured two demonstration areas and three visiting
artists. The event has grown considerably over the years, as
"Marble Crazy 2012" will have four demonstration areas and
more than 20 artists. It will include two lampworking benches,
a reproduction Marble Machine from 1905, a Large Wheel Marble
Machine, and a furnace working area.
In 2004, "Marble Crazy at the Inn"
was added to the event by the "Kansas City Marble Collectors Club" to
create another day of sales and fun for all participants. The Collectors
Show features both contemporary and antique marbles for sale, marble identification
(for those with old marbles that they would like to know
more about) as well as marble games and fun for kids of all ages.
