Kitras Art Glass
Nicholas Kitras, a second-generation glassblower graduated from Fleming Collage with an associate’s degree in applied arts and technology specializing in glassblowing. Ankeeta Kitras, has a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a Major in glass art from the Alberta Collage of Art and Design. Their love story began in the Yukon where Nicholas was traveling for work and Ankeeta was on scholarship working. When they married, they vowed to build a life—and a business—that fused their talents.
Every piece at begins as a glowing gather of molten glass, pulled from a 2,100°F furnace. Nicholas’s hands move with the precision of decades, twisting, blowing, and sculpting, while Ankeeta puts the finishing touch on each piece and makes sure every piece is of the highest quality.
