KEVIN REGAN , resident artist
Kevin Michael Regan is the owner and resident artist of Central GlassWorks. He has been blowing glass for almost seventeen years. Regan established his first studio, Central GlassWorks, in November 2005 at 26 years old.
Regan picked up his first blow-pipe when he was 16 years old in a class taught by Scott Darlington at Fifth Avenue Glass, now known as Seattle Glass. He started assisting classes at the age of 17 and was teaching beginner classes by the age of 19. After several years at Seattle Glass, Regan began traveling.
With the urge to do more than just blow glass, he landed an apprenticeship with the most prominent glass carver in the world, Kelsey Murphy, who at that time led the cameo division of Pilgrim Glass. Regan lived in the hills of West Virginia on Murphy's ranch for almost four months. It was there that he launched his trade as a glass carver. It was also his first experience living in a rural setting.
