Current Exhibition

‘Thanks For The Memory’- Glass Postcard Exhibition – some remaining glass postcards for sale.

2024 sees the last International Festival of Glass to be held at the Ruskin Centre in Stourbridge.  The Contemporary Glass Society has been involved with the Festival since its inception.
As our time at the Ruskin Centre comes to an end and we look forward to the next era of the Festival, to celebrate the amazing journey we have all had, we asked our members to share their own memories. 

Memories are magical moments that we treasure so join us in our last Postcard Show at the Ruskin Centre and visit a small treasure full of memories.

Over 100 CGS members took part in this fantastic and fun fundraising show. Over half the postcards sold in Stourbridge but we still have some amazing ones wanting to find a new home.

All work is for sale at affordable prices £50, £75 or £100. and 50% will go towards CGS events in 2025

Do take a look.

Please email admin@cgs.org.uk to enquire
