Rehersals have started and the musicians sound really good.

Save our glass heritage - Spring Concert will be held on Sat 9th May 2009 at Kingswinford Methodist Church. This concert is being held as part of a campaign to save the Stourbridge glass and archive heritage. This is the area's identity and glass has been locally made for more than 200 years.


Save our glass heritage want to highlight the importance of keeping the Stourbridge glass collection and archives together and not close Broadfield House Glass Museum prematurely.


We welcome a better facility but require firm assurances that the current facility is not reduced in any way.


A Big thanks to Jenny and Allistair for helping me organise the Spring Concert.

A special mention for Allister Malcolm who will be featuring his work at our forthcoming Spring Concert. Allister is the talented Glass Designer at Broadfield House Glass Museum.
