We are currently in the process of re-evaluating the Glass Pledge. Established in June 2020, the Glass Pledge was intended to address racial inequity in the glass community. Three years into its existence, it is time to review this pledge, establish realistic goals, and collaborate with artists and organizations to make the pledge fit the requests and needs of the community. Our IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility) committee, composed of GAS board members, staff, and community members, will be revising the Glass Pledge over the next year. We are reaching out to community leaders and organizations and will be transparent about our list of partners during this process. We are aiming to publish a new Glass Pledge by the end of 2024.
