Born and raised in Denver, Colorado, Chuck Lopez started working with glass in 1989 at a production studio in Boulder, where for seven years he learned all facets of the art of glass blowing.
He has been involved with Pilchuck Glass School since 1994 as a volunteer, student, summer staff member, teaching assistant, and an Emerging Artist in Residence. His involvement with Pilchuck has provided him with exceptional experiences and was where he first saw potential of glass as an artistic material.
With an educational background in computer science, mathematics, and philosophy, Chuck received a BA in Philosophy from the University of Colorado, Boulder in 1995, and a Master of Fine Arts degree from Alfred University in Alfred, NY, in 1999. He currently resides in Seattle, WA, where he works as the Glass Studio Technician at Pratt Fine Arts Center.
