<h2 style="font-size:16px;COLOR:#BB3333;FONT-WEIGHT:BOLD;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;" >East Falls Glassworks New Year's Update - 2009</h2>
First I'd like to wish everyone in the East Falls Glassworks community a very happy New Year. The New Year holiday provides the opportunity to recognize the best parts of the previous year and contemplate the positive changes the new year brings.
<p>
<h2 style="font-size:16px;COLOR:#BB3333;FONT-WEIGHT:BOLD;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;" >2008 Year in Review</h2>
It is a testament to the strength and enthusiasm of the community; despite the economic turmoil of a very difficult year, East Falls Glassworks had its busiest and most exciting year ever. Many thanks to the East Falls Glassworks staff and instructors who made 2008 such a success.
<p>
This summer we doubled our capacity with a new furnace and annealer. I'm happy to report that the size of the new furnace (~850 LBS) seems just about perfect; we are now melting glass only once per week, freeing up lots of additional time for renters and classes.
<p>
Things are getting even better; in 2009 we have plans to further improve the facility, including some new and upgraded cold-working equipment.
<p>
<h2 style="font-size:16px;COLOR:#BB3333;FONT-WEIGHT:BOLD;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;" >2009 Events and Classes</h2>
<b>Open Houses:</b><br>
Mark your calendar, our next two open houses are February 14th and April 11th from 1:00PM - 7:00PM. This is a chance to:
<li>Watch amazing glassblowing demonstrations. Of course any glassblowers are welcome to participate (blow glass for FREE!!!).</li>
<li>Check out the work in our gallery - showcasing many local glass artists.</li>
<li>Walk around the complex - many of the 40+ Sherman Mills artists will open their studio for the day.</li>
<li>Buy one-of-a-kind bargains from our seconds table.</li>
<p>
<b>Classes:</b><br>
Winter and spring classes are posted on the <a href="http://eastfallsglassworks.cmail5.com/t/y/l/djljur/djdktdhl/j" target="_blank" style="color:#000099;" >website</a>. We've broadened our class choices and have offerings for both beginners and experienced glassblowers. Any suggestions for classes or specific techniques to cover are welcome. If we use your idea you'll get a free East Falls Glassworks t-shirt!
<p>
Look for special experience day/workshops this spring. We are planning Valentine's Day experiences - make hearts with (or for) your loved one. In March, when the flower show comes to town, we will have special flower-making experiences. We'll send along more details as they become available; feel free to drop an email if you'd like to be first on the list.
<p>
<h2 style="font-size:16px;COLOR:#BB3333;FONT-WEIGHT:BOLD;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;" >Contemporary Glass Philadelphia - Call for Volunteers</h2>
Contemporary Glass Philadelphia (CGP) is a non-profit organization that serves the Philadelphia glass community by providing grants to glass artists and sponsoring events that foster relationships between glass collectors and artists. The Philadelphia artistic glass community is strong today in part because of the estimated $100,000 in grant money that has been handed out by CGP over the years.
<p>
An auction/fundraiser is being planned for early May at East Falls Glassworks/Sherman Mills. All proceeds from the event are going directly to CGP and will help CGP continue in its mission to serve the glass community. There are many ways that you can help:
<li><b>Attend the event</b> - we'll send out more information once the specifics are finalized.</li>
<li><b>Donate a piece</b> - again we'll send out information when its available.</li>
<li><b>Event planning/coordination</b> - There is a lot of work in planning and executing a great event. Please contact me (<a href="mailto:jon@eastfallsglass.com" style="color:#000099;" >jon@eastfallsglass.com</a>) if you can help. It is an opportunity to get involved with a great organization.</li>
<p>
<h2 style="font-size:16px;COLOR:#BB3333;FONT-WEIGHT:BOLD;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;" >Continue Spreading the Word!</h2>
East Falls Glassworks depends on referrals for most of our business. If you had a good time here, spread the word - tell your friends, link from your blog, help us build the community.
