ABOUT BULLSEYE PROJECTS

Started in 1974 by three recent university arts graduates, Bullseye Glass Co. is a Portland, Oregon based artisanal factory, hand-casting colored glass for artists, designers, and architects. The company also operates a fabrication studio, underwrites materials research, and develops educational programs implemented at a network of resource centers across the United States and in collaboration with school programs worldwide. This symbiotic relationship between activities and makers sustains a vibrant ecosystem of exploration, innovation, and productivity.

The small team known as Bullseye Projects supports Bullseye Glass Co. programs while actively and directly advocating for makers who use Bullseye glass. This advocacy is informed by international promotion and art sales; residencies; exhibitions; and collaborations with museums, schools, and other arts organizations around the world.
