The Guild includes artists who create glass art using several techniques: fusing (technically referred to as kiln-formed glass), torch, or stained glass.

This exhibition features fused glass pieces, some of which include elements formed with the torch. The basic fused glass technique involves creating a design by cutting and layering clear and colored glass elements and then heating the piece in a kiln to a temperature high enough to “fuse” all of the parts/layers into one solid piece.

This exhibit will be open through the end of December. (Note: the facility will not be open during the Christmas holiday.)

The gallery is located in the LaSells Stewart Center.
