Businesses are lucky to survive ten years, but Fenton is turning 100-years-old and the festivities started Friday.

The art glass maker is still a family-owned business, but now it's managed by fourth generation Fentons.

A historical fact for a historical business and the Williamstown company celebrated just that today.

Attendants were able to play bingo, participate in auctions or just shop the original Fenton Glass art pieces.

One worker says thousands of people are expected to come out during the five-day centennial event.

On day five QVC is broadcasting live from the factory. That's on Tuesday morning at 10:00. Already, 400 tickets have been sold.
