The Glen Community

A Week Can Change a Life

The Glen Workshop has now accrued eighteen years' worth of rich traditions and friendships, some continuing from the earliest days and some that have just begun in the last few years. Returners and newcomers alike enjoy the rich and rewarding community they find at the Glen. To hear from Glen attendees themselves, check out this video on IMAGE's Vimeo channel.

The Glen in the Media: Glen attendees have been blogging up a storm about recent workshops. Click here to read about the experiences of some of our writers.

Open Slides/Open Mic: There are several opportunities throughout the week to share your art, writing, songs, or other performance art with others at the end of the day. Space and time is limited: just 5 minutes per person to allow space for as many as possible. There will also be space in the main hall for visual arts students to show their finished projects later in the week.

Silent Auction: Though IMAGE may look like a million bucks, we rely on small gifts for our very survival. At each Glen we hold an auction of faculty and student work to help raise money for Image and show off the talents of our artists. The silent auctions bring in over $5,000 in support each year. If you have work you'd like to donate to be auctioned, please bring it along. In any case we encourage you to come prepared to bid! Just keep in mind that whatever you donate needs to be relatively small and portable.

Eighth Day Books: The Glen Workshop is always delighted to welcome Warren Farha and the Eighth Day Books book table all the way from Wichita, KS, where you'll be able to buy books by the faculty as well as everything else that's fit to read. Though Warren himself would never say so, it's our belief that Eighth Day is the Bookstore of Heaven.
