The Glass Art Guild of Utah is a community of artists working cooperatively to support, promote, and develop warm glass art forms by serving the educational, networking, and informational needs of our members. Many artist members are local and national award-winners for their art and educational contributions to the warm-glass artistry.
Fused or warm glass is actually the oldest type of glass art known to man, but the least well known. Most historians believe that the first glass fusing and kiln casting was done by the ancient Mesopotamians in 2000 BC. Egyptians and Romans were the most prolific, and examples of their work can be viewed in museums around the world.
Heating glass in a kiln is the basis of warm glass art. The processes create a variety of different artistic and functional products based on a range of temperature work, such as fusing, slumping, and casting.
