AGI
From Melting Pot Wiki
AGI is an annual gathering held in a rural area of Western Pennsylvania. Here are some articles written by Deborah Carlsonthat [1] appeared in Glassline Magazine [2] that describe it in better detail.
At this event professional and armature glass artists participate in learning seminars and lectures given by their peers.
The event lasts a week and is said to be a hell of a time.
