Behind the Scenes: Teaching at Pilchuck Glass School

1st August 2025
Tucked away in the forests of Washington is the amazing Pilchuck Glass School. Incredible work happened there recently as Preston Singletary and Martin Janecký taught a session for the 2025 Program ("Archetypes and Icons: Bringing the Bubble to Life") alongside the talented Artists Raven Skyriver and Kelly O’Dell.
One of the many pieces created with the "Dream Team" included a two-sided moon mask featuring two perched ravens and detailed blackberry brambles complete with berries, blossoms, and leaves. They also developed new work with one of Singletary's Mentors Joe David, with Martin Janecký helping create Nu Chah Nulth and Northern style forms out of glass. Åsa, Singletary's wife, was also in attendance as she took in a class about casting glass.
