Story

Following the funding of our New CGS Website, we are now raising money to celebrate CGSs 25th anniversary!

Help us to celebrate our 25th birthday in 2022! We want to raise money for a variety of events to raise the profile of our 900+ contemporary glass artists with the buying public.

The Contemporary Glass Society is your organisation and is dedicated to promoting contemporary glass artists. The events that we are able to organise, along with the new website enables us to spread information to help you as artists improve your skills, find outlets to sell your work plus obtain materials, discounted offers and see opportunities. It links us together as a glass community.

Currently the charity supports 900+ artist members..if everyone was able to donate £10, we would reach our goal.

We don't just support artists, we also help, promote and support educational facilites, business, collectors and facilitate networking.

If you cant afford £10 please donate as much as you wish through Just Giving on our website:

Thank you so much for your help. This is so crucial to keep our charity and services going.

Best wishes,

The CGS Team

Sample testimonial from a CGS member:

'CGS is for me a 'society' in all senses of the word. It exists not only to promote contemporary glass in the wider art world, but also to provide a supportive community for members, the vast majority who (I'm guessing) work in isolation. CGS membership provides access to to information, opportunities to exhibit, education and the chance to connect with contemporaries. Supporting CGS enables it to continue this work at the heart of the UK glass family.'
