Call for Ornament Designs 2026

Following the success of our inaugural Annual Ornament Spectacular, which raised more than $7500 for artist development, Canberra Glassworks is once again inviting artists to contribute to this special fundraising initiative.

We’re calling on studio artists, hirers, Artists in Residence, Graduates in Residence, teaching artists, staff and volunteers to donate one-of-a-kind handmade glass ornaments for our annual December sale. Every ornament sold directly supports the Canberra Glassworks Masterclass Program, helping us bring leading Australian and international artists to Canberra, keep course fees accessible and provide bursaries for emerging artists.

Whether your work is traditional, playful, conceptual or experimental, we’d love you to be part of this growing annual tradition and help invest in the future of Australian studio glass.
