The excitement that is generated by imagination, the confidence that emerges from a new skill set, the insight that comes from looking at something from a different perspective, and the joy that erupts when an idea comes to fruition: these are some of the ways that our heARTfelt programming enhances the lives of people in our community!

Glass blowing is among the most popular and fastest-growing program at the Springfield Art Association. We are outgrowing our studio space as we are offering more and more engagement opportunities to our community in the Baima Glass Studio. This, along with seeing the success of other regional glass studios, has inspired us to create the Baima Mobile Glass Studio allowing the SAA to bring the art of glass blowing out to our community and the surrounding area!
