The San Jose Glass Artists Alliance was formed to create a community of artists that work primarily in glass. The organization strives to provide networking and solutions tailored to the specific and unique needs of artists that work in glass. Some of what we provide is:
Connecting gaffers with assistants for glass blowing
Professional development, consultation and workshops
Affordable classes for continued skill building
Meetings to share ideas and solve problems
Mentoring and fundraising opportunites
Our organization supports individual artists while they create the masterpieces of tomorrow. Supporting our events help us to leverage our resources as a community, to make better art, and be able to present it for public enjoyment in the future. Thank you.
