The Contemporary Glass Society continues to expand horizons and take contemporary glass into the community through its iconic Discovery Days. CGS is the UK’s foremost organisation supporting both established glass artists and up-and-coming makers. Our mission and passion are to promote contemporary glass among the art world and wider public.
CGS returns to the Victoria and Albert Museum in London for its final event of 2024.
