Washington Glass School
The Washington Glass School is a unique educational program in the Nation's Captial area, operating as the sculptural glass education, artistic and community center and resource for the mid-Atlantic region, serving students, artists and the general public. It encourages research and exploration of new techniques in all aspects of glass (kilncast, fused, cold worked) as well as other media such as steel, ceramics, lighting and concrete. Our goal is to introduce artists in other media to the dept, processes and joys of glass to enhance their work.
