Come join us each month to talk about all things glass! Our monthly meetings are held at our McNally studio on the 4th Saturday of most months.

Each meeting includes both a show-and-share portion for anybody who has projects to show or ask about, and an Education portion for free learning opportunities. Many informal “ask an expert” sessions take place at and after our meetings, and suggestions and/or volunteers for the Education portion are always welcome.
