The organization provides access to and an education in glass for professional artists, seniors, students, and members of the public of all backgrounds and familiarity with the material. We offer year-round free and low-cost programming through our 17,000 square foot studios, robust class schedule, fellowship and scholarship opportunities, exhibition center, and in-house printed magazine.Founded in 1977 by a group of dedicated artists, UrbanGlass sought to confront the many barriers limiting creative access to glass such as the high costs of real estate, equipment, and the scarcity of technical expertise. From the organization’s conception it served as it does today: As a creative hub and unparalleled resource center for artists, enabling this material to become available for experimentation beyond the confines of factories and universities in New York City for the first time. Today, glass is seen as an integral component of contemporary art’s complex landscape." } ] } ] ```
