In 1991, a group assembled large collections of old Akron marbles and set up an exhibition, which they took on the road, visiting numerous cities all over the United States for 4 years. After that the exhibit was shown in Akron’s State Office Building from 1995 to 2002. In 2002 they moved to their current location in Lock 3 Park which sits on the site of the former American Marble & Toy Manufacturing Company. It is the largest museum of marbles in the world.
