HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

********************************************************

Happy Mothers Day to all the "Women in Wax" and to all the Mothers who cared for and supported us!

How many of you have stories and fond memories of your Mothers and Grandmothers taking you to visit a Wax Museum? I sure do!

My own Mom endured her fair share of me wanting to visit Potter's Wax Museum or the Presidents Hall of Fame on my birthday and has been very supportive of me as I've shared parts of the WAXIPEDIA ARCHIVES collection of wax figures and art at festivals, special events and museums.

Thank you to the Moms who care and to all the Mothers who have dedicated their lives and skills to this amazing unique craft! There are far too many to thank, but here are just a few.

Madame Marie Tussaud - The Mother of All Wax Museums

Katherine Stubergh-Keller - The Mother of American Wax Museums

Sonya Vasquez - The Modern Mother of American Wax Figures

Enjoy this little celebrations of Mother's in Wax? Why not commissioned the wondrously talented SONYA VASQUEZ into making you a wax figure or two? Just tell her WAXIPEDIA sent you!

 Or if you want more daily fun and excitement join WAXIPEDIA's always exciting FACEBOOK GROUP!

Dedicated to preserving the history of Wax Arts, and the unique stories of all those involved in its development, WAXIPEDIA strives to be the number one source of information on the subject of Wax Museums and their role in the attractions and entertainment industries. Through the sharing of photographs, brochures, movies and stories we hope to enlighten, engage and entertain all who discover us. 

As a resource, the WAXIPEDIA ARCHIVES was established in 2014 as a repository for physical examples and information pertaining to these educational goals. Consisting of thousands of items (ranging from century-and-a-half year old guidebooks to life-sized wax figures) the ARCHIVES are the backbone of WAXIPEDIA's mission. Anyone interested in supporting these efforts through donating are encouraged to visit patreon.com/WAXIPEDIA and contact us at waxipediaofficial@gmail.com. Items donated will be digitally scanned, photographed and eventually restored to be credited to their specific donors and made available to future generations of artists, designers, historians and fans.
