DC GlassWorks is a public access studio that is located just over the DC city line in Hyattsville, Maryland. Their goal is to provide the community access to hot glass working facilities, classes and to enhance the arts experience in the greater DC Metro area.

American artists Eric Markow and Thom Norris met in 1994. The two started collaborating on organically inspired stained glass window commissions for the next decade. Over the years as glass flame work and glass fusing became more popular, Markow & Norris began several years of experimentation to develop handwoven glass.
