WarmGlass Weekend 2002 Photos
|
The first WarmGlass Weekend Conference was held in Portland, Oregon on October 10 - 12, 2002.
Receptions, seminars, discussions, presentations, demonstrations, tours, and classes made it a week a total immersion into glass and an undisputed success. The WarmGlass Weekend Conference is the brainchild of Brad Walker, the founder of www.warmglass.com, and is devoted to glass fusing, slumping, kiln-forming and finishing techniques.
