about

Brian Schmitt

Founded in 2008 by artist Brian Schmitt, the Shack Man Glass Studio was created as a community resource for both glass artists and the general public. Brian has been working with borosilicate glass since 2003 and is a certified instructor of the medium. Brian's work has been featured in many design publications and his work has been sold to many collectors of art glass throughout the U.S.

Artists in Residence

Shack Man Glass Studio has several artists in residence who work on-site in the studio. In the coming months Shack Man Glass will introduce these artists to you along with their incredible work.

Opened in 2008, the Shack Man Glass Studio provides a dynamic environment for you to appreciate the local glass movement through exhibitions, classes, artist in residence program, and live demonstrations.

Shack Man Glass not only offers visitors a glimpse into the world of art glass creation but in the Shack Man Glass Gallery a variety of hand-made glass objects are made available for the first-time or seasoned collector of glass. Shack Man Glass is a great place to find gifts and one-of-a-kind treasures for your home.
A hands-on glass studio is also available for rent to glass artists who are traveling or need use of the variety of equipment that Shack Man Glass offers.
Located in the heart of the Tennyson Street Cultural District and the Historic Berkeley Neighborhood of North Denver, Shack Man Glass is a regular participant of the First Friday Art Walk. During the city-wide art walk we offer live glass blowing demonstrations (onlineand in person) where viewers can spend as much time as they like watching our artists in residence engaged in creating real pieces that may find their way to the Gallery. Visitors who may not have the same ease as our artists being in the studio can watch the demonstration on our large screen.
