The 41st annual Green River Glass Show and Sale will run from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 24, at Kent Commons, 525 Fourth Ave. N.

Admission is $3, with the door proceeds benefiting local chapters of the American Heart Association, Children’s Hospital and Medical Center and the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Attendees also can win door prizes.

Thirty-five vendors will sell from 200 tables featuring glass, jewelry and collectibles from early to mid-20th century, including depression, elegant and 50s, 60s and 70s glassware, pottery, china and kitchenware.

The Green River Depression Era Glass Club’s display this year will be “Favorites of Yesteryear”, featuring our members’ favorite items of glassware from the depression years. Other local glass clubs also will set up glassware displays.

Special guests will be Randy and Debbie Coe, authors of many books on American Glassware. Randy will be providing free glassware identification (limit two items) for show attendees. Roy’s Glass Repair will be available on site.

In addition to the Kent Commons parking lot, free covered parking is available at the Maleng Regional Justice Center parking garage next to Kent Commons. The garage is accessible from both Fourth Avenue North and West James Street.
