Happy Thanksgiving!

Booth sales are open now on the website for the show. You must be a current member to sell your work.

• This year’s show and sale will be in Hall D of the Convention Center and will be in a much larger space, which will allow us to arrange our booths differently and so we have more booths with front line corners and aisle corners.
• We have more room for Group Booth tables, so we can provide more opportunities for new and emerging artists.
• Please check out all the information on the show on the event listing on the calendar Gathering of the Guilds – Pacific Northwest Glass Guild .
• To sign up for a booth before they are all sold out, log in as a member, go to the homepage, then click on Registration Info in the GOTG article, and follow the instructions.
• If you have questions, please contact Lesley Kelly.

• The Art By Design show in Seattle WA Feb. 3-4 features 2 Guild members

• Also in Seattle WA there’s a Glass Artist’s Potluck at 11 AM Sunday Feb.5

• A Mosaic Retreat in Deer Island OR Feb 3-5
See the calendar for other classes in Deer Island OR and Battle Ground WA this month

And of course the ongoing registration for Gathering of the Guilds booths: if you buy your booth and get your photos in by tonight’s publicity deadline (Jan 31st) your art has a good chance of being seen all over Portland in the next 3 months as part of the big promotion planned by the GOTG organization. The show will be April 28-30.

Don’t miss the opportunity to sell your art at the 2023 Portland Rose Festival. The Guild has been given a unique opportunity to have our members participate in this year’s Maker’s Market.

Check out the information page and Register today. Registration deadline is April 30, 2023.

This weekend (April 26-27, 10 am to 5 pm) come and talk glass with PNW Glass Guild members Lael Bennett, Bridget Culligan, Janiene Fitzpatrick, Karen Seymour, and David Smith plus see artists with other garden-related work during the free Art In Bloom Garden Art Studio Tour and Sale in NW Seattle. Maybe bring your Mom: it’s two weeks until Mother’s Day. See ArtInBloomSeattle.com for the map and more info.

Join Margie Rieff Wednesday night March 26th at 6:30 for a Sherlocking meeting. Bring one of your glass pieces and get feedback. Bring an appetizer to share. Please send Margie an email if you are attending.

11 am until around 2 pm at Karen Seymour’s house near the zoo in Seattle (5415 Greenwood Ave N). Any one is welcome, member or not. Come discuss glass, what the Guild could do that would be helpful to your glass journey, and especially the upcoming Vendor Fair May 11.

If you have a piece to show off or ask questions about, we’d love to see it. Also bring a dish to feed about 8. Please contact Karen Seymour if you plan to attend.
