Artech Glassblowing Studios is a traditional glassblowing studio in the Haliburton Highlands, nestled in the rocks and woods of ghost town Tory Hill, Ontario in an old United Church. We strive to design work that is inspired by our native Canadian surroundings for the urban consumer. We produce great handblown glass tableware, custom glass pieces, corporate awards and one of a kind pieces. We are known for our recycled beer glasses, a repurposed beer bottle that still holds a full beer!
Terry Craig and Jennifer Wanless-Craig are the designers, makers, owners and (honestly) the chief bottle washers.

Jennifer Wanless-Craig is the brains behind the operation and has the best shoe collection in the group. Her hobbies include drawing stick figures, inventing new soups and general bossiness. She enjoys double-dutch skipping, documentaries and some good jazz music.
Terry Craig is our oldest glassblower by far. Single malt scotch, bone collecting and a good cup of coffee keeps Terry a happy man while creating glass under the disco ball. Mr.Craig enjoys long walks, short movies and eating out. Recently Terry has taken up the art of strangling geese (oops!) bagpiping.
Aden Spurr has been with Artech Studios since 2008. An avid Star Wars fan, Aden like short walks and long stories. His travels take him all over the world but he always ends up back here, blowing glass and eating all our muffins.
Jake Raynard has been blowing glass with Artech Studios since the early beginnings. A Thunder Bay native, Jake prides himself on being the best Lego builder in the county. He can grow a mean beard, dances hard and always likes a good rodeo.
Anabelle Craig is the youngest member of Artech Studios but works harder than anyone. Anabelle has a fondness for spiders, sushi and fast rollercoasters and goes by the names Anabell-bananabelle or The Bug. When she isn't dreaming of Africa, Anabelle can be seen helping out with shows and packing orders.
