Lightworks Inc. Information

Lightworks was started as a hobby business by Charles and Kathryn Dailey in 1997. We began our little venture by repairing and restoring antique and vintage light fixtures. When we secured an account from a national restaurant chain in 1999, our hobby turned into a full-fledged business. Our first rented space was on the fourth floor of the 100-year-old Rock Island Building (now Security Lofts Building) located in the historic warehouse district in downtown Minneapolis. As our business grew, we added our first employee, the remarkable Eric. Years later, his younger brother, Mike, started working for us. Our latest employee, Wes, is an amazing addition to our staff, and his innovations have allowed us to produce some astounding lighting. In June of 2001, a customer asked us to build a light fixture appropriate to her local prairie style home. Before we knew it we were offering over 250 customized historic reproduction models. Our current line-up of fine employees are the dedicated and talented people who are responsible for providing our customers with the unique light fixtures you will only find at Lightworks.
