What to do on a SNOW DAY?

Call Blenko Glass 304 743 9081 for observation deck times - Mon- Friday
Saturdays on special occassions only.

Andrew Kuntz:


'I find working with glass meditative, almost therapeutic. I can the the world behind, and focus...The simplicity of form, the dram of rich, intense color, the joy of challenge, and the challenge of endurance...The piece, when it is over, is not what is made, but how it is made.'





Take your children to BLENKO GLASS, the observation room is open every weekday and an occasional weekend. Phone for information. 304 743 9081.
