Chappell Gallery is built on a strong foundation of education, the fuel that has driven the art glass movement to its current heights.
Glass art is a global movement; it is far-reaching and speaks many languages.  

In addition to representing artists from the United States, Chappell Gallery’s founder, Alice Chappell, has sought out artists from around the world.
