The ASHTABULA HARBOR BEACH GLASS FESTIVAL was founded in 2010 by Lori & Troy Dalrymple. The Dalrymples own and operate Beaches, INC, a line of beach glass and beach inspired handcrafted jewelry. Their mission was to spread their love and knowledge about this gift from nature with the help of other like-minded artists and beach glass lovers. The Dalrymples “retired” from festival operations in 2020 but still own and operate Beaches, INC along with several other successful businesses. Each June over 100 artist gather on and around Bridge Street in the Ashtabula, Ohio to continue spreading their love and knowledge of this incredible and versatile treasure found along our shores.
