Jean Whisnant - Glass
I started blowing glass in 2016 by taking a class at JCGEP. I found I really loved it and continued taking classes until I was able to work on my own. I retired from Harrah’s Cherokee Casino in 2020 and used my extra free time to get in more studio time and set up a business to sell my glass on Etsy shop (ValentineArtsCrafts) and at craft fairs in the region. I work by myself, so I make smaller items, but I enjoy the colors and color combinations that can be used.
Jean can be seen often at the park, where she often runs on and off campus demonstrations and glass blowing classes. Sign up for one of her classes or contact her for commission work.
