This FREE EVENT is unlike any in San Diego County. Visit Glass Ranch and watch live glass blowing demonstrations at the artist couple’s private studio.  
Purchase this year’s new art glass and dichroic glass jewelry
for holiday gifts and enjoy a pleasant outdoor garden atmosphere with garden sculpture, music and refreshments.

Glass Ranch has been created by Garry Cohen and Cherrie La Porte Cohen at their residence in Escondido with a hot shop for blowing glass, a fused glass studio, a sculpture garden, mosaic ponds and a glass gallery.  Their contemporary glass gallery is set amongst their unique sculpture garden where you can view their latest creations of Blown Glass, Fused Glass Sculpture, Glass Jewelry, Bronze & Garden Sculpture  available for purchase.   The landscape, with a view of Lake Hodges, is designed with many spaces and is an art showcase created by the couple with paths that lead you to interesting large glass panels, hanging dichroic glass mobiles and a mosaic pond in the shape of a snake giving visitors a chance to become inspired with ideas for their own environment.  Glass Ranch is a blend of eclectic artistic vision of glass, metal and nature worth visiting. 

The artist couple also specializes in applying their talents in design to personalize special places in your own environment, be it exterior in your landscape or a special place indoors that needs a unique accent. They have designed custom glass sculptures for both private homes and business offices.  Their focus is primarily glass but often incorporate other materials to develop contemporary sculptural ideas.  Their clients have enjoyed the way they combine the fusion of glass, metal, bronze, cement and other local materials to create their particular project.  Garry and Cherrie look forward to consulting with you to develop a unique creation based on your ideas for your home or landscape.   
Contact Glass Ranch to schedule an appointment for a tour or to consult about your art glass project.   
 

     Medicine Shields  
New Fused Dichroic Glass Sculpture by Garry and Cherrie
The Medicine Shield is an imaginative icon meant to provoke a startling reaction while at the same time offer protection from outside interference.   Think of the Shield as sort of a primitive mezuzah to be displayed near your entrance warding off all ill intended vibrations while offering security to all who come under the protection of the Medicine Shield.
 

Glass Ranch Garden Mulch
Glass Ranch garden glass mulch is recycled colorful art glass remnants from beautiful blown glass pieces.  The glass has been recycled from the artists and tumbled into glass mulch that can be used decoratively with potted plants or in a landscape or garden.  The unusual blend of interesting shapes and colors of glass can only be found at the artist studio. The glass mulch is available in 5 or 10 lb bags at a $1.50 a pound with larger qualities available by request.
