Rebecca Zhukov is the founder and driving force behind Blackstone River Glass, a thriving glass studio nestled along the banks of the Blackstone River. With a passion for glass artistry and a dedication to building a creative community, Rebecca has spent years honing her craft and creating a space where people can experience the magic of glass firsthand.

Her journey began with a vision—to bring the beauty of glassblowing, flameworking, and fusing/slumping under one roof. After two years of construction and planning, Blackstone River Glass opened to the public and has since taught over 2,000 classes, welcoming both beginners and experienced artists into the world of molten glass.

Rebecca’s work has been recognized in Hey Rhody and Providence Monthly, naming her one of their Leading Ladies. But for her, the real reward is seeing the joy and wonder on people’s faces as they shape glass with their own hands.

Whether she’s leading a class, creating stunning pieces, or fostering a welcoming creative space, Rebecca continues to inspire and grow Blackstone River Glass into something truly extraordinary.
