The Magic of Glass

As an artistic medium, glass creates magic! From inspiration to creation process to finished piece, glass evokes emotions. Nearly everyone feels drawn to glass and is fascinated by its illusiveness.

Glass Artists are adventurers; revampers of centuries-old techniques, creators of new ones; tamers of the wild chameleon that is glass; sorcerors who transform and liberate the magic of glass!

This event will provide the public with a variety of opportunities to view a diverse selection of glass art and to experience and discover all that goes into its creation.

The 2010 Glass Art Festival is a community-wide event sponsored by the MAC, the Museum & Arts Center in the Sequim-Dungeness Valley, the local hub of heritage, history, culture, and art. For more about the MAC, visit macsequim.org.

Except for the workshops in artists’ studios, the events of the Glass Art Festival are free to the public.
September is a beautiful month in Sequim, on the North Olympic Peninsula of Washington State, and this year it will be shimmering with an array of glass art throughout the town and beyond. Come experience the Magic of Glass!
