* A mask mandate will be in effect on Sunday morning, May 8th from 10am – 12noon for both artists and attendees, providing our high-risk and immuno-compromised attendees a safer experience. There will be “Mother’s Day Specials” throughout the show at this time.
COVID-19 Policy:
We are following CDC recommendations for Multnomah County at this time – “People may choose to wear a mask. People with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID-19 should wear a mask.”
Some of our artists are vulnerable and will require you to wear a mask in their booth; please be prepared to wear one.
Proceeds of art sales on the Ukraine Donation table will be donated to charities helping people affected by the war in Ukraine.
Here’s a piece by Lesley Kelly that will be on that table
Booth applications are now closed but we still need more volunteers to make this work: Fill out the volunteer form to let us know how you want to join the fun and help us pull off another great glass event.
We’re also looking for Portlanders to host out of town glass artists and volunteers for Gathering of the Guilds for the 4 or 5 days of Gathering of the Guilds (May 4-8), please fill out the hosting form and make a new glass friend!
Please contact Lesley Kelly if you have any questions.
