Opening Today: Craig Studios, Vancouver, BC

Brock Craig’s much-anticipated new fusing and coldworking studio is now open for business.

Set in Vancouver, B.C., Craig Studios is one of Canada’s best-equipped, private production and teaching studios. It is also a retail outlet for Bullseye sheet and accessory glasses, metal foils, and Paragon’s Bullseye Edition kilns.

Supplies will be sold Monday through Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm. Classes will start in February.

The teaching studio is equipped with several workbenches and a wide assortment of kilns and state-of-the-art coldworking equipment.
