Mark your calendars!  Make your plans!  Another fun and informative Carder Steuben Glass Association Symposium is ready for you.  This year’s event will take place from September 7-9, 2023 at the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York.  We have another great lineup of speakers and activities planned, and we will share program highlights in future Gazelle Gazette issues.  The schedule of events, information on hotel accommodations, and the link to register can all be found on the CSGA website here.

Anyone wishing to attend the Symposium is encouraged to register and make hotel reservations online soon.  Room blocks with preferred rates are reserved at nearby hotels but expire as soon as July 14 (details are here).  There will be a car event held in Corning the same weekend as our Symposium and hotels will be in demand.

Please make your plans to attend today!  We look forward to seeing you in person.

SATURDAY NIGHT BANQUET AND AUCTION

Symposium 2023 is almost here and tradition demands an auction during the Saturday night dinner banquet! We are soliciting items for the auction now. Proceeds of the auction support The Steuben Glass Association website and our Carder Steuben glass mission. The Carder Steuben Glass Association is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, and you will receive a tax receipt for your donation.

You may wish to donate or consign Carder Steuben glass, post-Carder Steuben glass, glass of the same era, or glass with relevance Corning.  Other items like books, New York State wine, or Frederick Carder items also make great auction entries.  An original Frederick Carder smoking jacket was a hot item last year! Please send item descriptions to President@steubenglass.org.  The items may be shipped to:
