PGW Grand Opening WIth Kurt B And D-wrek

PGW Grand Opening WIth Kurt B And D-wrek

I would like to thank everyone who attended our GRAND opening! Thank you to Mayor Harry Tutunjian for his kind words and blessing with our new shop. Huge thank you to our guest artists, Kurt B. and D-Wreck, whom worked through the night to finalize that gorgeous piece or art.
Thank you to the crew here at Prism for your hard work, long nights and continuous love for an amazing art form. Thank you to our friends and family and especially my parents, for without all of your support PGW would not be what it is today.
We will continue the tradition of opening up our doors the last Friday of every month to this community. It will be a night where we expand and push the boundaries of both our local and glass community and we look forward to introducing our style and our artwork with the help of continuous guest artist visits. We open up our doors to you as you open up your minds to us and what possibilities we can create…Thank you all! ~Phil
