| The Westmoreland
Glass Society, Inc. is a not for profit club dedicated to promoting and
collecting Westmoreland Glass. The club was organized in 1992 by a
group of avid Westmoreland glass collectors. Starting with 32
members, the club is now over 500 strong.
Each year we hold an annual convention in August, and a spring
mini-convention, usually in March or April. The meetings are in
various locations throughout the United States, to give all of our
members an opportunity to attend. With seminars, auctions and raffles,
as well as plenty of socializing and snacks it is a wonderful
opportunity to learn more about Westmoreland Glass. Reproduction
alerts, rare glass displays, door prizes and a business meeting are part
of the event. Room sales are available to members, giving
each of us an opportunity to expand our collections, as well as browse
and admire the vast selection of Westmoreland Glass available at these
events.
The benefits of belonging to WGSI are
both educational and social. The quarterly newsletter has many
articles, from reproduction information to technical articles explaining
how to identify Westmoreland Glass. Each issue has a color photograph
added to the front, an opportunity to have your questions about
Westmoreland Glass answered, and a section for 'item wanted' and 'item
for sale' ads. These ads are free to our membership.
Annual dues are $25 per family, or $15
per individual.
