The Glass Ranch in Escondido – Pre-Mother’s Day Celebration at the Semi-Annual Open House

Get Ready for Mother's Day at The Glass Ranch in Escondido Open House

Art Glass at The Glass Ranch in Escondido CA 

The Glass Ranch in Escondido will be hosting its 16th semi-annual Open House Weekend on April 30 and May 1. As you know that's the weekend before Mother's Day, so what a great time to visit The Glass Ranch, tour their spectacular gardens filled with plants, flowers and art glass, enjoy the glass blowing demonstrations (see the video below), and do a little shopping...or a lot of shopping. 

The Glass Ranch Open Houses and sales are very popular events - a wonderful celebration of artistry merging with nature, and a chance to see two very talented glass blowers, Cherrie LaPorte and Gary Cohen and their glass creations.

The Glass Ranch in Escondido | MY Idea of Black Friday, and Saturday and Sunday | Nov 26 - 28, 2010

A visit to the Glass Ranch in Escondido is MY idea of Black Friday.

The Glass Ranch in Escondido CA

And you still have time to enjoy it, too. 

Glass creation at the Glass Ranch in Escondido CATheir semi-annual open house with glass blowing demonstrations (VIDEO LINK to my vid on YouTube), beautiful glass creations (glasses, jewelry, bowls, vases, decorative items), and strolling through their magnificent gardens is a wonderful way to shop in a venue I suspect few have experienced. 

Talented glass blowers Garry Cohen and Cherrie LaPorte are a delight and you will enjoy chatting with them about their love of glass blowing. 

The open house continues for 2 more days

  • TODAY, Saturday November 27th, from 11 until 4
  • and then again on Sunday from 11 until 4. Don't miss this opportunity to experience an artistic venue that will enthrall you. 

The Glass Ranch is located at 20307 Beech Lane just off Del Dios Highway in Escondido, a stone's throw from Lake Hodges.

The Glass Ranch owners' contemporary home and gardens on the hill surrounded by mountains in view of Lake Hodges makes the visit even more special.

Enjoy the photos AND a virtual walk through their gardens below.
