Crayon Day - March 31

Wax and chalk based crayons have been used by artists around the world for centuries. The brightly colored crayons we are familiar with today were invented by Edwin Binney. He was part owner of Binney & Smith, a company that produced products such as paint, pigments and slate pencils for schools. In 1903, Binney & Smith created the Crayola Division and produced colored wax crayons for children for the first time. Then in 1904, they presented their An-Du-Septic chalk at the Colombian Exposition in St. Louis winning a gold medal. The chalk was designed to be dustless at many teachers' requests as was an immediate success.
