Our Talented Team of Glassblowers in New Brunswick
Glass Roots was formed in 2008 by Curtis Dionne. Our glassblowers serve clients in New Brunswick and the surrounding areas. Located in New Horton, we’ve been catering to the glass art needs of commercial and domestic customers and have been in the business for over a decade now. Anyone who comes is more than welcome to watch our glassblowers who will happily answer any questions that you may have. Every order is created using the process of our wood-fired glass blowing furnace. When you visit us, you can explore the hiking trail behind our Studio and Shop that leads to a Nature Conservancy called 2 Rivers.
