Light the Forest

Nov 8 and 9, 4pm – 7:30pm


Join us for an electrifying event in the Pacific Northwest forest. Experience Pilchuck Glass School’s breathtaking and historic campus in a whole new light this fall this year's Light the Forest event.

This event is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to experience a self-guided walking tour of neon art and light installations in the Pacific Northwest forest. This year's event will run for two evenings, November 8 and 9, and feature work by Jen Elek and Jeremy Bert. All pieces in Light the Forest are available for purchase and commissioned works by the artists are available upon request.

Pilchuck Glass School is an international center for glass art education nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains amidst a working tree farm. Since its inception in 1971, Pilchuck's serene campus has been a place where glass artists from all over the world convene for shared creative experiences, reflection, inspiration, and learning. Get a taste of Pilchuck's creative magic at the most unique art walk you'll ever attend.

Children under 14 years of age have free admission to tour the installations. All add-ons require a separate ticket.



Make Your Own Glass (add-on)

30 minute time-slot arranged prior to event


Sign up for a make-your-own session and see first-hand what it’s like to work with molten glass! Craft a charming ornament, and choose from a vibrant array of colors and patterns. With half-hour slots available, you'll receive personalized guidance as you bring your artistic vision to life! Each creation will cool overnight in the annealing oven, but will be shipped to your doorstep.

Please note: Participants must book their slot on the same day they attend. One piece of glass art per ticket. Open to all ages 6 and up!



Make Your Neon Workshop (add-on)

12 pm - 4 pm


Join us for an exciting introduction to neon making! This four-hour workshop will be focused on getting participants into the studio, bending glass, and illuminating their own art. Each student will walk away with a gestural illuminated sculpture—contained and ready to be displayed in your home! Students should expect to get a feel for the way glass tubing is manipulated in a flame and leave with a basic understanding of how neon works. This is a great opportunity for folks who have no glass experience and for those interested in neon art!

Please note: Guests must attend the workshop for the same day they’ve booked their ticket to view the exhibition. Each add-on on is good for one person. Workshop is welcome to everyone ages 18+.
