In my random wanders on the interwebs looking for interesting glass topics to write about I found this web site, Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass. What a great site. They have memberships and give grants and sponsor events. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. There are announcements of other events and links to sites and they profile glass artists. This month is Stephanie Trenchard. Lovely lovely work. And the other artist can provide so much inspiration. This site is definitely getting a bookmark and I think joining would be a really good idea…
