Pilchuck Glass School.

Pilchuck Glass School is recognized as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and is an equal opportunity employer.

Pilchuck Glass School is located on the ancestral homelands of the Skagit, Tulalip, and Stillaguamish tribes, who continue to thrive and who are the contemporary custodians of the land where our campus is situated. We honor the ancestors and respect the elders of the past and present of these tribes.

Pilchuck does not discriminate on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, nationality or ethnic origin in employment or in artistic or educational programs.
