We have monthly meetings (except August) at Central Lutheran Church located at 1820 NE 21st Avenue in Portland. It is located at 21st and NE Schuyler, one block north of Broadway. There is on-street parking and a small parking lot behind the church building (to the east). Enter at the back door.

To help get our meeting started on time at 7:00 pm, we ask that you arrive early to help setup or to checkout library books. Come early to enjoy the fun, food and fellowship. Limited parking is available in the parking lot and on nearby streets.

      PROG has monthly meetings (except August) where we meet to discuss glassware and to become better informed about glass and other collectibles. We are fortunate to have as members some of the nation’s leading authorities in beautiful glassware. We have a Show & Tell table or a “Bring & Brag” time where our “experts” can identify a piece that otherwise has no markings. Meetings include a glass “Pattern of the Month”, a guest speaker or program on glassware or other collectible items.

      We usually have a “Show & Sell” table for members who want to display glassware they have for sale. Our refreshments are second to none and always served elegantly. Our extensive reference library, with books that may be checked out, is available to members at our monthly meetings. Members can order and receive a discount on selected books and reference materials.

      Meetings also feature:

    • Access to our voluminous lending library
    • Glass for sale
    • Door prizes
    • Raffle items
    • Snacks and Refreshments
    • Mini Auctions
    • Show & Convention updates
    • Sign-up sheets for all those little tasks that are so necessary
    • "Show & Tell"– bring your latest neat find!
    • "What Is It?"– glass ID – bring your mystery piece!
    • Food, Fun & Fellowship!
    • July & December meetings feature a potluck dinner
    • October is Candy Dish month (with candy to sample)  as we celebrate Halloween.
