The SaddleBrooke Glass Art Club fundraiser is almost here. For the first time, the Glass Art Club members are offering the opportunity to purchase or win through a silent auction and drawings gorgeous pieces of glass art and other art forms created by club members and their families. The fundraiser will be held 4 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 24 at the SaddleBrooke TWO Arts and Crafts Center.

Your attendance will help the Glass Art Club purchase a much-needed larger kiln. You’ll get to see all manner of glass art: fused glass, stained glass, mosaics, and spun and blown glass. Club members will be there to explain how the different forms are created and what types of training/facilities are offered. Hopefully you’ll leave with your newly purchased or won piece of glass art!

Larger pieces will be offered through a silent auction; smaller pieces through drawings. There will be something for everyone plus wine, food, and door prizes.

Tickets can be purchased Mondays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. starting on Oct. 7 at the Turquoise Room, SaddleBrooke TWO arts and crafts center. Your admission ticket ($4 in advance, $5 at the door) covers wine, food, door prize entry, and one ticket for the drawing of your choice. Additional tickets for the drawings are two for $5 or five for $10 at the door or six for $10 in advance.

Come join us and celebrate the glory of glass art while helping the Glass Art Club grow to meet the needs of the SaddleBrooke community.
