General liability insurance offers a standard layer of protection while selling your glass art at events — but it doesn’t fully shield your business from every risk. Just like annealing strengthens glass, additional coverage can protect your business against unexpected claims.
ACT Pro starts at $24.25 per month, giving your business durable protection for events, products, online sales, and more. Need short-term coverage? ACT Go starts at $49 per event, offering valuable coverage when you sell at art shows and festivals.

No, you do not need a license to practice the art of glass blowing. However, you may need certain licenses to start a glass blowing business or become an event vendor.
If you’re selling glass art or considering building an at-home studio, please check your local state and city requirements first. You may need to:
Yes, glassblowers insurance is worth it for hobbyists! Personal insurance, like a homeowner’s or renter’s policy, does not typically cover business activities, even if they stem from a hobby.
Labeling yourself as a professional or a hobbyist won’t keep claims from happening, and having the right coverage ensures your craft is already covered!
Yes, ACT glassblower liability insurance is designed to help cover artists and artisans while selling their pieces at craft fairs, makers markets, gallery exhibits, and other events.
Most event organizers require their vendors to show proof of general liability insurance before participating — ACT helps provide insurance for artists and crafters to help meet these requirements in minutes at an affordable rate.
Glass blowing business insurance protects artisan glass craft makers, while glazier insurance protects contractors and professionals who install, repair, or replace glass such as window installers. Both are types of insurance that cover third-party, general liability claims, but ACT does not cover glaziers.
No, homeowner’s insurance typically does not cover business-related tools or equipment like glassblowing supplies. The best way to protect your glass blowing business equipment, even if you work out of your home, is with general liability insurance and theft and damage coverage.
A general liability policy helps protect your business from third-party liability claims of injury or property damage, and the theft and damage coverage can cover the cost of repairing or replacing your movable tools and equipment.
Yes, with an annual glassblower insurance policy (ACT Pro) your business can be covered year-round for online sales on platforms like Etsy, as well as for in-person events.
If you only need coverage for a single in-person event and not for online sales, an ACT Go policy may be a better fit.
