Ginger Kelly started blowing glass in the mid 80’s while studying design at CSU Chico.
“They had a glass blowing department and I got hooked”. Born and raised in Northern
California, Ginger moved with her family to Seattle in 1988. There she continued to
study and work with glass as an art material. Maintaining a studio, teaching and
designing a line of glassware. Her work can be seen in galleries across the U.S. and in
select department stores.
Besides her glasswork, Ginger has successfully designed a grouping of jewelry,
incorporating glass and sterling silver jewelry. “ I enjoy the more intimate scale of
jewelry and I can solve a different set of problems”.
After almost 20 years in Seattle and many achievements, Ginger relocated to Louisiana in
the spring of ’05. Settling across the lake from New Orleans, setting up a studio and
getting to work. “The South has been a new inspiration and challenge to me in a positive
way”.
