As you may know, the CGCA Fellowship program, at Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center in Millville, N.J., is an outstanding and unparalleled residency program for artists who work with glass. In 2014, the CGCA will award ten fellowships to emerging and mid-career artists. Artists have the use of private studios and excellent glass studio facilities within a respectful sanctuary of concentrated time.
Artists are also provided a stipend, a private studio, technical assistance, comfortable housing, and institutional support. In addition, they are embraced by a dedicated and warm staff, all on a beautiful 50-acre campus just 45 minutes south of Philadelphia.
Serving over 340 artists in the last 30 years, the CGCA provides an exceptional opportunity for artists to pursue their creative development in one of the finest glass facilities in the country.
