Today is About Stained Glass

by

Mark Eric GulsrudI really don’t give stained glass enough attention here at the Glass Arts page. My problem is that it’s not a medium I work in. But I know some of you out there do so I’m going to try to pay more attention to it. I’ve been showing all of you ideas of glass ideas that you can embark on in 2010. So here’s the web site for the Stained Glass Association of America to help you with some of your stained glass adventures.

They have their conference coming up in April that’s to be held in Kansas City. Check out the info on that. There’s also their magazine, Stained Glass Quarterly and they’re looking for submissions. There’s quite a bit of information for the stained glass artist on this web site, including insurance information. You’ve got to check it out. And more on stained glass soon!!
