The Kaleidoscope Factory

The Kaleidoscope Factory is a whimsical store that was started by Leonard Olson. After moving locations a few times, he finally settled in downtown Pocahontas. After his passing in 2019, his family took up the business and keeps it operating. They are happy to host traveling groups for classes, but even stopping in and seeing their inventory is a magical experience in itself. You will also want to be sure to check out the life-size kaleidoscopes this store helps make to be put in public parks throughout Pocahontas County.
