Michelle sends along this email from Duckbill Studios sent out last week…

We would like to take this final opportunity to tell all the fans of Duckbill Studios a HUGE Thank You for their support over the last seven years.  Without you, our journey would not have been as interesting.  Hopefully the creativity of the Duckbill Studios’ artists has enriched your lives in some form or another.

After seven years of operation, we have decided to close this chapter in our lives and move on to other adventures.  Maybe there is something to the seven year itch after all. The instructors and artists that used to call Duckbill Studios home have found a new home called Atlanta Hot Glass.   

We hope that you will continue to support the Atlanta glass artists by visiting them, purchasing their art and signing up for their Mailing List.

The misses forwards me an email that announced Scottdale’s Duckbill Studios Spring Sale started last Saturday.

Beginning Saturday, April 25, the gallery at Duckbill Studios will come alive with over 100 pieces of original and affordable art by more than 6 professional artists for Duckbill’s annual spring sale. The Art Sale is open to the public from April 25-May 9, with a kickoff on Saturday, April 25 from 10 AM – 2:00 PM.

The Spring Sale is Duckbill’s opportunity to offer pieces at 10% – 50% off retail prices to our community. The gallery has art glass including functional pieces (cups, plates, vases, perfume bottles, candlesticks, bowls), paperweights, ornaments, sculpture in a variety of styles and price points, insuring that everyone-from the serious collector, to the art-buying novice-can find something that suits their space and budget.
