PNWGG’s Portland area Open Studios registration now open
September 13-14 will be our 10th year having a Glass Art Open Studio Tour and Sale in the Portland region. The show is open to all current PNWGG members who have their studio or home in these five counties: Columbia, Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas (Oregon) or Clark (Washington State).
Members who live in other counties may participate by being hosted in a studio within these 5 counties. Here’s the link to the application info.
The cost for each artist is $65. You can easily pay using a debit or credit card after you fill out the registration form linked to the info page above.

• You need to register in the next two weeks i.e. by July 20th if you want your photos in the publicity, so sign up as soon as you can. The absolute deadline is August 6th but if you wait that long you miss out on being publicized well. No refunds will be given but you can have an acceptable replacement buy it from you.
• If you are able to host other member-artists in your studio, please register right away so possible guests know where opportunities to show/sell are and can be connected to your studio. Using the forms linked on the info page above, you simply need to indicate that you can host and how many guests you are looking for. More artists listed at a location on our map tends to increase the number of visitors who stop there.
• If you want to participate as a guest in another artist’s studio but don’t know whose, please complete the application right away so we can try find a host site that’s a good fit for you.
• If you already know whose studio you’ll be at, please indicate that on the registration form by choosing the host’s name from the list as instructed.
If you have questions please contact Daryle Ryder
