More about fused glass artist Becki Fahs: I am an artist who found glass fusing and fell in love with the magic of the glass in the kiln! I love color and function and fused glass is the perfect blend of these 2! Designing and creating fused glass art makes me so happy.

The Home Depot Kids Workshop!
Volunteers from the Bloomsburg Home Depot will be on hand to run a Kid’s Workshop!
Here’s the description for The Home Depot’s website:
Home Depot’s FREE Kids Workshops offer fun and useful projects like building toolboxes, fire trucks and mail organizers, birdhouses, Mother’s Day gifts, or any number of other cool projects.
The workshops are great for 5- to 12-year-olds, and they teach children do-it-yourself skills and tool safety and at the same time they help to instill a sense of accomplishment. If your little builder is under 5, that’s fine, too, but you’ll need to provide a little more supervision.
Visit this booth and see what project the Makers at The Home Depot has for you!
