Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass

The Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to further the development and appreciation of art made from glass.  The Alliance informs collectors, critics and curators by encouraging and supporting museum exhibitions, university glass departments and
specialized teaching programs, regional collector groups, visits
to private collections, and public seminars.

The newsletter and website contain extensive listing
opportunities for galleries.  The links to galleries is very useful
for finding art glass galleries in areas where you may be
traveling to.  They have a collector network and, I believe, a mailing list that is available.  They also provide a pair of free
tickets to SOFA Chicago and special events.

open to anyone interested in glass art.

They have an excellent website and produce a newsletter.

Art Calendar Magazine

Mission: To connect artists with income and exhibition opportunities.

The magazine is in its 20th year. Selling art isn't necessarily
easy, but it CAN be done. Our mission is to provide the most comprehensive source of listings of professional opportunities
for visual artists available anywhere. We were using this slogan
20 years ago -- we lived up to it then, and we live up to it now. Each issue features 20-30 pages of hundreds of listings of juried shows, residencies, grants, galleries reviewing portfolios, publishing opportunities, positions open, and much more. Along with the listings, we provide a variety of readable ("No CriticSpeak!") articles for working artists. Every month we cover topics such as self promotion, art marketing, selling on the Internet, effective display techniques, licensing and reproduc-
tions, public art and commissions, artists making a difference,
art law, federal and hazards updates, "soul food," psychology
of creativity, and artists creating community/working together.
