Modern Marbles An Exhibition at Indigenous Gallery

Indigenous, A Handcrafted Gallery, is located in O'Byonville, Ohio, within minutes of Cincinnati.

I have had the pleasure of exhibiting and selling my work at Indigenous for more than two years.
The gallery space is enormous with glass wall on three sides, which I love because of
being able to showcase my stained glass.

I urge anyone near or traveling to Cincinnati to stop by and see this marble exhibition. It will be a feast for the senses.

  1. As a child, I loved, loved, loved marbles! (saddly, they're all gone...) And not just to play with them. I had some cool antique marbles that I could just sit and look at all day. A blogger friend of mine is a glassblower in Pensacola, Florida, and he's sent me one of his marvelous (humongous) marbles as a prize. I. Love. It!
    Too bad I'm not going to be anywhere near Cincinnati anytime soon, that's an exhibit I would really enjoy.

  2. I know what you mean.
    My fondest memories about being with my brother, whom I dearly loved, was playing with marbles. We had so much fun. I always wondered how they were made. These are true artists and these marbles are exquisite!.
    Unfortunately, I will not be able to get to this exhibition, even with being 2 hours from Cincinnati.
    I wish all the artists the best.
    Thanks for you comment, Jewels. Can't wait to pay it forward.
