Remaining 2008 SAGAG meetings

-
We are fast approaching the end of 2008 and there are not many San Antonio Glass Art Guild (SAGAG) meetings remaining in this year's calender. If you attended in September to see Milissa Montini's video demonstration of pulling murrini (glass cane) you know how good these meetings can be. You're not going to want to miss these either.
-
October 30th at 6:30 pm, Liza Connell with Crystal Box Studio will be presenting on ways to embellish glass jewelery with simple to the intricate techniques using wire and Precious Metal Clay (PMC). Liza is an Senior Instructor for metals at Wired Designs Studio. If you have never taken a class with Liza this is your chance for a preview. If you have, I need say no more you already know how wonderful she is. The October meeting will be at Casarita Restaurant at 2895 Thousand Oaks just West of the Jones Maltsburger Intersection.
-
The November meeting is tentatively scheduled for the 6th to accommodate visiting artist and instructor Roger Thomas. The SAGAG programs committee does a phenomenal job of exposing our members to visting artist from around the nation whenever possible (reason alone to be a member of SAGAG). These are opportunities you don't want to miss. More information will be available soon regarding the location.
-
As a reminder SAGAG is open to anyone who works in glass at any level from hobbyist to professional and to those interested in glass art. Our mission is to promote community awareness, understanding and appreciation of the glass arts and to maintain a support network for artists, which provides educational, mentoring and marketing opportunities.
