Heart of Glass - Blenko Glass

Blenko Glass is a West Virginia treasure that spans generations. Nothing symbolizes the state of West Virginia better or more beautifully than Blenko Glass. We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Festival of Glass - Milton, WVa. Aug 2-3

Fredrick Collins said " There are two types of people -- those who come into a room and, " Well, here I am!"   and those who come in and say,  " Ah, there you are!"

Perhaps this is also true of companies.   The Festival of Glass ( Aug 2-3)  is another way in which Blenko Glass says -  ah, there you are!   Blenko wants you to have a great weekend and enjoy learning and participating in glass making.

If you haven't made plans to attend the Festival of Glass in Milton, WVa  do so today.
For additional info phone 304 743 9081.

This could be YOU!  If you enroll in the glass blowing class during Festival of Glass  8/2 - 8/3.

#1 Blenko is making three bowls for this event and you should have photos of them and find out if we can buy online.
#2 Blenko has new Tshirts my son bought one last week, again photos of this type thing should be on the blog so we can order - theya re not on the online store.
#3 Did Randy Rider make anything this year? Much like you and your Shorty I am trying to collect Randy Rider stuff. Sometimes a Princeton store will have special things he made.
Again why don't you publish this info?
Thank you for what you do. If you can continue but increase the information it would be excellent.
Perhaps Blenko could also somehow connect with you?

Kind words. Kindness is a virtue, and dear sweet Hillary you continue to be so very kind when you speak of Blenko and the workers.
