Corning 2026
Celebrating Community | Expanding Futures
Wednesday, June 3–Saturday, June 6, 2026
Join the Glass Art Society in Corning, New York from June 3–6, 2026! We are excited to bring GAS programming to the Corning Museum of Glass and to explore the brand-new facilities at The Studio, including North America’s largest casting center. The 2026 conference marks the eighth time the GAS Conference has been held in Corning–the most of any single conference host in our history.
The theme of the 2026 Conference, Celebrating Community | Expanding Futures, will focus on the diversity of the global glass community and the way our collective futures are improved when we work together. This year also marks the return of the fan-favorite and dynamic Glass Fashion Show hosted by Laura Donefer. This is one conference you won’t want to miss–get your presentation proposals submitted today!
