Many customers like to know about the company and people behind the products they buy. Here we will tell you a little about ourselves and our company.

Our Philosophy

We are committed to providing a creative outlet for people of all ages.  We are also committed to providing a place where entire families can gather and have fun doing something together, while sharing quality time expressing each individual's own creativity. Creating something by hand can be very relaxing and therapeutic, not to mention confidence boosting  You will be amazed by your results when you see your finished product. Since there are no mistakes in art - everyone will have the unique opportunity to create their very own masterpiece in their own way.  Basic instruction and techniques will be offered as well as suggestions which will fit each artist's own individual desires.  We guarantee you will have an enjoyable experience regardless of what you choose to create.

Our Shop - A Child Friendly Environment

Our shop is child friendly and children of all ages are always welcome.  We have a kid friendly toy room available for young children or nursing moms.  We have toys and activities that will keep your little ones engaged and entertained while parents create.  We also have many projects that can be done with little hands and feet.  Don't hesitate to bring your children with you.  Sometimes you may even find the owner's son Samuel in the shop with her.

Tammy Napiontek - Art Educator.   Tammy is the longest and one of the first employees hired at Aglazing Art Studio.  She is not only an employee but one of Rosalynn's closest friends, confidants, motivators, listeners and Rosalynn's most trusted sounding board for her constant crazy ideas.  Shortly upon starting to work at Aglazing Art - Tammy proposed a curriculum for teaching fused glass classes.  Her idea took off and between the two of them they have carved out quite a niche in succesfully teaching glass fusing to people of all skill levels.  Although fused glass is Tammy's passion, don't let her fool you.  She is good at painting pottery and playing with clay as well.  She's always coming up with new ideas for projects and designs and she does all of this while holding down a full time job at Peninsula College and raising her family.  Tammy is one of our super stars.

Crystal Hendricks - Studio Clean Up.  Crystal joined our team in September of 2011.  She was one of Rosalynn and Tammy's former students at Upward Bound and needed a job. She was willing to do "anything" so Rosalynn decided to give her a chance and gave her a job cleaning the studio weekly.  Crystal is in charge of sweeping, mopping, washing, dusting, and general clean up of our studio.  It's a large place and art can really muck up a place quickly.  Crystal comes in diligently every week and pours her little heart into cleaning the studio and making it look nice and clean.  Way to go Crystal, keep up the good work!
