Welcome to Maker News!

Howdy Stay at Homers! Welcome to the crafty side of LA Art News. Back when LA Art News was a print newspaper, I had the bright idea to start a beautiful, quarterly magazine called Maker News. Of course reality smacked me upside the head and that never happened. Well, here we are now. Maker News is being brought to life within the world of LA Art News. This is where we can have some maker fun. Craft projects, field trips (from a distance for now), and other creative pursuits is what will live here. So…being that my brain spends a bit of time focused on glass, that’s where I’ll start.

If you have something to submit, send it to me, whether it be a craft project, a video, or an event, at the info below.


Here’s a quick tip from Bullseye Glass, one of our sponsors.


The New Bullseye Glass TechBook, Available Now


Practically an undergraduate education in kiln-glass, all in one place.

For your convenience, our TechBook compiles the core of our educational articles as of 2019—including TechNotes, TipSheets, Quick Tips, and Product Use information. If there’s a better single tool for becoming a more polished kilnformer, we don’t know about it!
