You've got to see it to believe it!
Owning a piece of Fenton Art Glass is a delight, but watching
it made is an outright thrill! Our "FREE" guided factory tour offered
on weekdays is up close and personal. Knowledgeable and friendly guides
take you right to the action where skilled glassworkers use the tools and
techniques of centuries ago to create beautiful art glass right before
your eyes! You'll see glassblowing and pressing operations as well as
Fenton's signature skills − basket handling and "ringing!"
