The International Sea Glass Association’s Board of Directors and Festival Committee are currently accepting nominations for speakers for the 20th International Sea Glass Festivals.

The 20th International Sea Glass Festival will be held at Mystic Seaport Museum in Mystic, Connecticut, on Saturday and Sunday, July 26-27, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

We are looking for speakers to present a talk of up to 45 minutes with time for Q&A after the presentation. Talks should focus on an aspect of sea and beach glass collecting, identification, history, or other information of interest to our community of enthusiastic sea and beach glass collectors. The presentation should be educational, not promotional.

Presenters will have their photo, bio, presentation description, and contact information on the Sea Glass Festival web page and in marketing materials.

The ideal presenter:
  • Is experienced, engaging, and comfortable speaking in front of a large audience.
  • Is passionate about sharing expertise on topics that include unique and historical sea and beach glass, remarkable collections, identifying sea and beach glass finds, or other related topics.
  • Is willing to travel to the festival location for the weekend.
Please indicate below whether you would be willing to speak on Saturday only, Sunday only, or on both days. Please check all three if you are flexible.
