Stretch-Out Discussions
We are pleased that the SGS Stretch Out Discussions will now be conducted on the interactive Zoom platform. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn from our experts and to share your knowledge with us. Do you have an article of stretch glass you need identified? Perhaps you would like to share a recent acquisition or you can simply watch and enjoy the discussion. Both members and non-members of the Stretch Glass Society are invited to participate.
