Longtime Port Townsend resident Patrick Forrestal established Port Townsend Glassworks in 2020 after first exploring glass as a medium in 2005. Inspired by glass artists from all over the globe, the long history and traditions of glass blowing, and the innovations in glass that are still being discovered, Patrick additionally credits his livelihood in glass to a deep appreciation and love of family, friends, and nature. Having not considered himself an artist early on in his career, working with glass has provided opportunities to create and explore art in ways he never imagined. He especially enjoys sharing his experience with others through collaborative works, glass blowing lessons, and mentorship opportunities.
