Founded in August 2009, Berlin Glas, e.V. is a non-profit association that aims to give international professional artists and students the opportunity to work with hot glass in Berlin.<br><br>In Germany, those interested in working with glass can only do so at a very limited number of schools or rent space in factories. Berlin Glass, e.V. plans to offer a dynamic and modernized studio to a wide range of artists, students and eventually the general public at an affordable price.<br><br>The atelier will offer a full hot glass studio for glass blowing and eventually cold-working. As Berlin is becoming the centre for a contemporary art, a hot glass studio will provide an exchange between artists working with glass and the abundance of talents that are already in practice in the city.<br>
