Paperweight Collectors Association of Texas
Join Us!
The Paperweight Collectors Association of Texas (PCA TX) was organized June 28, 1986, to foster interest in the art of the paperweight and related glass art works, to share knowledge with other interested people, and to provide a forum for fellowship with other paperweight collectors and dealers. PCA TX is qualified as a tax-exempt, non-profit organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States. Contributions to the Association are tax-deductible.
Member Benefits
PCA TX generally hosts three meetings a year, open to the public and free of charge, on subjects of interest to the Association's membership; maintains an extensive library of literature and videos related to paperweights, paperweight-related objects, and other art glass subjects available for use by all Association members; and periodically sponsors exhibits of paperweights in libraries and other public facilities. For convenience and diversity, meetings are held in different Texas cities such as Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi, Waco, New Braunfels and College Station.
Members also receive a newsletter, The Paperweight, published after each meeting. The newsletter announces upcoming meeting(s), discusses the actions taken at the most recent meeting, publishes discussions of paperweight and paperweight-related subjects and activities, maintains contact with the Association's members, and publicizes upcoming art glass-related events in museums and other forums across the country.
