FAGCA Annual Convention
Our 49th Annual Convention Theme
My Favorite Fenton
Tuesday July 22 through Thursday July 24, 2025
This year's inclusive theme embraces over 100 years of Fenton beauty as "My Favorite Fenton". The sky is the limit for those setting up a display table. This will be planned for you by convention co-chairs Miriam Boyle and Kay Kenworthy. Festivities will take place once again at Marietta Shrine Club, a beautiful facility located at 249 Pennsylvania Avenue in Marietta (near the fairgrounds). This is a wonderful venue in a beautiful setting, right along the Muskingum River. We feel this location serves our growing needs perfectly and will afford our members the freedom to choose lodging which best suits them.
