Collectors’ Travel Network

The Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass Collectors' Travel Network is a way for members to see fabulous private collections when trips take you out of town and time permits. When you travel to different cities in North America, and even abroad, this membership benefit offers you the opportunity to see privately owned collections where pieces of art have been carefully chosen by individuals or couples for their own pleasure. They all love to share, show their collection and talk glass.
