The Cultural Arts Council Douglasville/Douglas County’s new Pop Up Arts Shop for October features Cathy Wood’s creative glass work with CW Glass Designs.
As an artist of many creative mediums, Wood fell in love with the art of stained glass over forty years ago. During a long tenure as an art teacher for public and private schools, Wood’s passion for stained glass was only a hobby. In retirement, she kicked her business CW Glass Designs into high gear and hasn’t looked back since.
Wood’s custom-designed treasures for the home range from wall and window decorations to front doors, fireplace screens and more. Her repertoire also includes custom-designed items that make unique and thoughtful gifts for any budget. Some of his bestsellers over the years include Holiday Treasures, Collegiate Items, Plant Friends, Custom-Designed Pet Portraits, and the Infamous Angels.
When asked why she is so passionate about her art, she replies, “I love working with the different colors and textures of glass. I like to create unique and timeless gifts. I also like to create windows for houses and churches. I can do anything through Christ!
The Pop Up Arts Shop is the perfect place for unique gifts created by local artists. Each month, the CAC presents a different artist who works with different mediums. Be sure to stop by the CAC for some amazing arts and crafts before they’re gone! The Cultural Arts Council is located at 8652 Campbellton Street in historic downtown Douglasville and is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, visit artsdouglas.org or contact the CAC at 770-949-2787.
