Glass Vegas is produced by Las Vegas Management, the company that has produced the Glass Craft & Bead Expo in Las Vegas for 22 years. Las Vegas Management also produced the International Hot Glass Invitational in 2009, bringing together artists from around the world for the largest team flame off ever held. Las Vegas Management’s goal is to provide professional show management in a great destination city.
It is our duty to take care of and support the community that has been so kind to us. The charity pick for our inaugural year is #TeamBob. Bob lost his fight in September, but we are still supporting #TeamBob and announcing the Team Bob Injured Artist Fund. Glass work and live painted art will be part of the silent auction at the show, part of the proceeds will go to Bob’s family to help offset medical bills and final expenses. The balance will be set up in an ongoing fund for injured artists, who can apply to Glass Vegas for assistance. You can help too. Just by coming to the show, you are doing your part. Participate in our charity auction by donating or bidding. Be a part of the movement, be a part of the cause. Get on board with not forgetting the ones that helped shape the industry. #TeamBob.
