The visit to Espace VERRE took place on May 17, 2017 in company of artist Suzan Edgerley.

Espace VERRE is a non-profit organization with the mission of developing the glass arts of Québec by teaching glass techniques, promoting glass arts and offering services to professional glass artists.

In 1983, glass artists François Houdé and Ronald Labelle worked in collaboration with various colleagues to create a studio dedicated to the fired arts (ceramic, glass and forge). On October 6, 1986, the Centre des métiers du verre du Québec inc. / Espace VERRE autonomously moved to the old fire station no21, where it still operates to this day. Over the years, many have dedicated themselves to make Espace VERRE a centre focused on glass art research, promotion and recognition.
