The North Carolina Glass Center is a nonprofit public access facility dedicated to education, exploration, and collaboration in all forms of glass. Our building contains a gallery, exhibit space, hot shop, flame shop and cold shop. We have over 60 artists that work and sell out of our space.
Stop by to take a browse through our fine glass gallery and view live hot glass blowing demonstrations or sign up for a workshop. We are open Wednesday - Monday 10am-5pm. We look forward to seeing you soon!
