This Big Thing is recorded as still being here.
Marbles at Mayfair is a public artwork by Winnipeg artist Erica Swendrowski made up of 11 fibreglass marbles, each 3 to 4.5 feet in diameter, on the grounds of the Mayfair Recreation Centre, 40 Mayfair Place, Winnipeg. It was first installed on Portage Avenue in 2012 as a temporary work of 21 marbles; in 2016 eleven were repaired, repainted and moved to Mayfair because road salt and debris were damaging them. They were repainted with new colours and patterns in 2025.
