FEATURED ARTIST: CLIFTON CROFFORD
Join us the second Friday of each month as we host an open studios night at SiNaCa. This is your chance to find out more about the “magic” that goes in to creating glass art. Each month we feature a different artist in our studios. As the artist creates their work we give you an interactive play by play, so you can understand better why they do what they do. Our on site gallery showcases our featured artist to give you a close up view of what they create. Its also the perfect time to find out how you can get involved in learning how to work with glass.
MEET THIS MONTH’S ARTIST: CLIFTON CROFFORD
Bio
Clifton Crofford’s passion for glass took root at UT Arlington, where he explored design across architecture, theater, and art. While helping develop a new 3D art facility for the university, he refined his craft. After graduating, Clifton and fellow UT Arlington alumni opened a glassblowing studio in Dallas/Fort Worth. Working with local artists and art advocates, he envisioned a community-driven space. In 2007, SiNaCa Studios was founded, opening to the public in 2010. Alongside four co-founders, SiNaCa Studios has since inspired countless individuals about the art and wonder of glass.
