How to Join the North American Sea Glass Association

Whether you're a collector, artisan or seller of sea glass, you might want to join the North American Sea Glass Association (NASGA). NASGA formed to educate sea glass enthusiasts, including sellers and artists, about genuine sea glass. Some items are often passed off as genuine sea glass, while others are merely imitation. If your hobby or trade is sea glass, then becoming a member of NASGA is for you.
