Follow Your Heart Blown Glass Treasure Hunt
~ Carlsbad Village ~
The 2nd Annual Follow Your Heart Blown Glass Treasure Hunt in Carlsbad Village is coming in February. If you’re looking for something fun to do that will get you outdoors this may be just the thing.
The Carlsbad Village Association and Barrio Glassworks are sponsoring this fun treasure hunt on February 12th and 13th. The treasure hunt begins at 10 am on Saturday and ends at 4 pm on Sunday.
This could be a good opportunity to spend time in Carlsbad Village! You can shop while hunting down glass hearts!
February is American Heart Month, and Valentine’s Day is the day after the event concludes. What could be more appropriate than a heart-themed treasure hunt?
Here’s how it works. 50 colorful hand-blown glass hearts created at Barrio Glassworks will be “hidden” in Carlsbad Village in popular locations over the 2-day period. Each engraved glass heart is numbered and dated, and a collectible – you find it, you keep it!
Here are some general clues for finding the glass hearts – in iconic historic places, near downtown murals, at places one might sit and relax, near the rail trail. After you discover one you should register your find on a special website hosted by CVA in order to be entered into a prize drawing. A label attached to each heart will have the registration details.
Once you find a heart you are done. Please, only 1 heart per person.
All participants who find a glass heart, and register, will be entered into a drawing for a free glass blowing experience at Barrio Glassworks.
What a neat idea and a fun prize, too!
Many thanks to the Carlsbad Village Association and to Barrio Glassworks for hosting this creative treasure hunt event in Carlsbad Village during this special month.

ANOTHER VALENTINE'S EVENT
Here's something else to do that's heart-related. Donate blood at the 5th Annual Heart of the Village Blood Drive on Saturday February 12, also at the Barrio Glassworks.
And do some Valentine's Day shopping at their Pop-up event with several local artisans.
