Glass studios in Houston area
Hi ---
I will be traveling on business to Houston, and will have time to kill while there. Can any of you tell me whether there are any glass stores/studios with open torch time, or perhaps torchwork or fusing classes? I'd love to be able to get my glass fix in while traveling. (I'll be somewhere near the Katy Fwy between the loop and the beltway, but really would go anywhere in the metro area --- I am killing time here!) Thanks, --Dave |

I don't know offhand about glass studios, but I can probably find out; I'd also be happy to play Native Guide around Houston if you want to see any of the sights.

Galveston glass might have something. They have adds in most of the
magazines, and something on line I would imagine. Don't know much about him other than he does some hot, and warm glass, and I think he does torch work too. Liam "D Brock" wrote in message ...

Hi all, thanks for the responses, although as you can see, it appears that
Houston doesn't seem to have too big of a warm glass community... I did check out the Houston Studio Glass site, looks like a great spot to check out especially for hot glass workers. --Dave "D Brock" wrote in message ...
