http://www.texasmarblecollectors.com/Home_Page.php This is a link to the Texas Marble Collector's Club website. Click on the link to find out more about our show, like making hotel reservations. Many of us arrive on Wednesday and we all eat dinner together each night. It's a chance to meet people with a common interest and spend time with them. The hotel has reasonably priced food and last year, they gave us a private dining room for our dinner. It was so nice, we decided to eat in each night. Some of the nicest people I've ever met are marble collectors. If you are not selling, all you have to say is no. I bring marbles to the show that I am not selling. A lot of us do that. It's an opportunity to learn if you can see things you haven't found.
Our special event for the October show is a visit to Kittrell/Riffkind Art Glass. They will have a marble maker for us to watch and also displays of contemporary marbles they handle from collectors around the U.S. In April we have our show at Round Rock near Austin. That hotel allows us to make marbles in an area behind the showroom. It's a fun time. We will also have 3 former U.S, Marbles champions at that show and they will teach us to play marble games.
