Blenko Glass' Dean is hosting a month long ' Animal Kingdom ' event.
As a child - I would take my allowance to Blenko each month and purchase a Blenko critter - many were made with molds, or made by hand by glass blowers - at this time the blenko craftsmen were allowed to sell their individual creations in the gift shop.
It isn't necessary to collector to attend.
Bring your family - visit Blenko -
Animal-Kingdom
During
the ENTIRE month of March Blenko makes an effort to produce a true zoo
of glass animals. We look back to molds and ideas from our past as
well as reaching forward. Join us any time in March at our Visitors
Center to explore our glass menagerie. A wide selection is also offered
on line or by calling our visitors center to inquire what is on hand.
We
have started making Glass Animals for our March "Animal Kingdom" event.
We are searching high and low in the factory to find any old molds of
animal. And we are making a few, a limited number of each. We will offer
them in the Visitor Center beginning March 1, 2017. You may call then
to order. For now- be assured we are exploring, creating and having fun
making both molded and free hand animals for your consideration in
March.
Check the www.blenkoglass.com for updates about this event and perhaps photos of items being made.
We'll also update as we get new info.

I have lost contact with Blenko, can you provide an update?
Can you publish photos of animals being made and price info?
Blenko is now couple thousands mile trip, we can no longer do weekend glass trips to Milton and Westover.
Thank You for continuing to remind us to buy made in USA and to buy local.
It is becoming difficult to find products made in USA
Last week Margot Lee Shetterly spoke to medical society Hidden Figures ( author) she spoke highly of west virginia and higher education. If time permits read the book.
Will you post photos and can we buy on line?
