Pat East - 5 Steps to a Healthy Profitable Business

You’ve been warned since you were small not to play with glass. It’s sharp, it’s fragile, and you’ll get hurt if it breaks. <a href="http://abbygitlitz.com/">Abby Gitlitz</a>, founder of <a href="http://www.bloomingtoncreativeglasscenter.org/">The Bloomington Creative Glass Center (BCGC)</a>, agrees. You’ll get hurt if it breaks, and you can count on it breaking if you blow glass. You’ll get burnt too. But it won’t be a big hurt, and you’ll learn to make art using the medium you’ve been scared of since before you can remember.
