    Default madison glass art and bead show

    Has anyone checked this out or done it ever or even heard anything about it?

    Real curious because its only 7 hours from here, which is close to anything remotely going on...

    Thanks again,

    The emphasis seems to be more on beads than on glass art.

    I've been to it a few times. Not vending, just as a customer. It's so so. There are a few flameworkers there. I didn't really ask them how they were doing sales wise or anything. I don't know that I would drive seven hours for it. I'm not even actually gonna drive the 10 minutes it takes to go see it today.

    Hey guys just saw this. I didn't get any pics. The show was ok. Like Icarus said emphasis on beads not glass art. I actually did sell more marbles than pendants which surprised me but it's hard to say if I'll go back next year or not.
