Joining the Glaziers

The majority of our members join because they have an interest in, and a love of, this most accessible and beautiful of art forms. We do, however, count many glass artists among our members, and you can see some of their work on this website, and, if you wish, enquire about commissioning work from them. 

If you are interested in becoming a member please contact us.
