Glassworks is a publication of the Master of Arts in Writing program at Rowan University. The tradition of glassworking and the history of Rowan University are deeply intertwined. South Jersey was a natural location for glass production—the sandy soil provided the perfect medium, while plentiful oak trees fueled the fires.
