  • Show off your glass skills!

    Event Reminder

    There is still time to sign up to demonstrate a glass art technique at Art in the Pearl over Labor Day weekend (September 5th, 6th, and 7th). There are 50-60 thousand people who attend the show. This is an amazing opportunity to show off your glass skills and introduce people to your work! It’s absolutely free, and you don’t need to pack and haul a bunch of stuff or put up a display – just bring yourself and the tools and glass you need to demonstrate a particular skill or technique. The Guild will have the table all ready for you.

    Here are the key details for the event:

    • Purpose & Demos: The booth is strictly dedicated to demonstrating glass art techniques (e.g., stained glass techniques, mosaic building, glass cutting, vitrigraph, glass blowing, mold making, etc. We would love to showcase a wide variety of glass art forms!
    • Guidelines: No items may be sold on-site. However, we are encouraged to display finished sample pieces and distribute PNWGG informational flyers, Open Studios postcards, teacher lists, and personal business cards.
    • Schedule & Shifts: We will have 3 shifts on Saturday (9/5), 3 shifts on Sunday (9/6), and 2 shifts on Monday (9/7).
    • Sign-Up: Participation is open to anyone in the Guild! Please sign up using the SignUpGenius link for the event.

  • Glass Brunch Sun. April 6th in Seattle

    Event Reminder

    11 am the first Sunday of April: come to Karen Seymour’s house just west of the Seattle Zoo and talk glass with other artists. It usually runs to about 1:30. Bring a dish that will feed about 8 people. If you want something to drink other than water please bring that too.

    Show and tell: We love to see what you’ve been doing or hear what you are planning. Bring your glass questions too — there’s usually quite an accumulated level of experience at the table.

    RSVP to Karen so she has an idea of how many are coming — it’s really difficult to get out more chairs etc. after people start arriving.
