Nancy is an incredible force of positivity in the community with her beautiful personality educating all of us about her passion for the Arts 🎨 through her phenomenal glass work experience 💜

I wanted to get a friend a special gift. I knew she liked fused glass and had been to Glass Arts Collective to create her own piece. I have not been blessed with artistic abilities, so I asked Nancy, the studio’s owner if I could commission a piece. She did a phenomenal job, and my friend loved the platter she made. I can’t thank Nancy enough for helping to make this gift special. And there’s a little gift shop up front. What more can you ask for?

Robin K

Nancy is kind AND creative! She has often opened up her studio to host our networking event even though she had a full class the night before — her gifts are beautiful and she really knows her craft. You should stop in to see her beautiful studio and purchase some one of a kind gifts for someone special (or yourself)!

Julie K

An absolutely magical place. A great place to purchase art, browse through art, learn how to work with glass and create beautiful art. And a place to meet some amazing people ready to share a joke, a technique or become a life long friend.

Barbara F

Nancy is so passionate about her work. Her studio is the perfect place to relax and unwind from a busy day! She created such a welcoming environment for all of her clients, I highly recommend checking out Glass Arts Collective!

Megan D

The Glass Arts Collective is the perfect place to learn the art of fusing glass or to purchase a special one-of-a-kind gift.

Virginia K

From what is described about this collective’s goals and objectives I strongly recommend and commend their work and the emerging project of creating an online platform for working artists to engage in meaningful interactive dialogues with one another and the arts interested public.

Don P

I discovered the healing power of art at a time when I was clouded by grief. The tactile experience while handling the glass took my mind away from the weight of my
loss and gave my mind and soul a place to pause away from the heavy thoughts. The creative process of choosing colors, cutting, arranging, and fusing glass became a
form of meditation. Each piece I shaped helped piece my inner self back together. This is when I learned that Art doesn’t judge you or your grief; it just accepts you and
helps you heal. I chose a large project that at the time started. it was a setting sun to me, yet slowly each week, it became a rising sun; affirming my renewal.

But the experience at Glass Arts Collective was more than just the art—it was the community. The welcoming atmosphere of this studio provided my soul relief… I
referred to it as my Therapy. The sense of camaraderie among the artists of all levels made me feel like I belonged somewhere, at a time when I felt so unanchored.
Thank you, Glass Arts Collective in letting me find some light in my darkest days.

Darlene Heusser

I took my Leadership Team to Nancy’s studio for our holiday party! It wasn’t my first time, but it was all of theirs. I’ve been getting messages from everyone on how they loved the experience and how they want to go back. I highly recommend a fun girls night out. You can bring food and drinks and make a night of it!

Julie Kraschinsky

I’ve taken 2 classes with Glass Arts Collective and have loved, loved, loved both of them. I feel that I am not very skilled yet, but I look forward to other classes with Nancy who is amazing. I look forward to learning different aspects about making glass art and I would highly recommend the studio to anybody who is thinking that this is maybe a hobby or a project that they might like to do. It’s a great fun environment and I would highly recommend Glass Arts Collective. Below is my first project.

Audrey Fussell

The Glass Arts Collective is a beautiful and inviting space, full of friendly and supportive artists! They offer a variety of fusing and stained glass classes for all ages and levels of experience. The monthly studio membership is a great value for glass artists looking for a place to find inspiration and further develop their craft. I highly recommend checking out this wonderful studio!

Katie Pope

This is the greatest place for letting creativity flow. All of my teachers have been patient and wonderful, and all of the finished glass pieces are just beautiful. I’ve taken a few classes here and am always impressed by the people who say they have no talent for art and then produce the most interesting and inspiring pieces. I can’t recommend it highly enough for everyone, even kids. This is my new happy place.

Darlene Heusser

Nancy, the owner, made sure I had a wonderful experience in my latest class. I am growing in confidence!

Marilyn Robinson

My teenager and I both love the Glass Arts Collective so much! Nancy, the owner, is so kind, supportive and helpful. We have taken several classes and created beautiful things. My son enjoys it so much he has decided to make me a full set of dinner plates! It is really a positive, friendly place to spend time being creative!

Siri Maness

Came here from Paris for some business and found this super pleasant glass fusion studio. Nancy is so welcoming and makes it a true place for creation.

Michal Sellin

We LOVE our fused glass classes!! Nancy is amazing and has made us feel very comfortable and relaxed in her studio. Although I have never felt I was a creative type of person, somehow I am creating beautiful art and loving the process. Highly recommend!!

Mickey Whitten

I love this place. I took the Fused Glass Boot Camp and haven’t stopped making fused glass pieces and taking classes since. The teachers are terrific – very encouraging. They are very helpful and flexible. By all means, come visit when we are allowed to. I recommend looking at the samples from the different classes to decide what class to take first. And the gift shop has great pieces from bowls to wine bottle tops by local glass artists. There also are stained glass and mosaic classes and gifts!
