The "Glass About Town" feature of June Glass Month in the Gorge will highlight an incredible display of glass thanks to the businesses and artists that have paired up for this special event.
Glass will be showcased in 30 shops in Hood River, White Salmon and The Dalles during June, which as been dubbed "June Glass Month" by the Oregon Glass Guild.
Many of the artists will be at their host business, featured as the "First Friday" artist in Hood River on June 1, available to meet and talk with you about their work.
Joining local Gorge artists will be regional and national artists as well as a glass artist who has shipped her work from Israel.
Brochures about the event can be picked up at participating businesses.
The Columbia Art Gallery, at 215 Cascade, is the center of June Glass Month and will host a juried show, "The Elements of Glass," featuring the work of many local and regional glass artists.
The opening reception will be June 1 from 6 until 8 p.m.
