EXPERIENCE LIVE GLASSMAKING IN COOPERSTOWN!
with the Mobile Hotshop from The Corning Museum of Glass
At the Fenimore Art Museum
• July 11–17
Each day find FREE outdoor demonstrations of complex hot-glassmaking techniques – every 45 minutes from 10:30am-5:00pm, with sessions such as You Design It; We Make It! and Don’t Try This At Home. There’s even a FREE demo for kids at 11:15am—all on the front lawn at Fenimore Art Museum! (Entrance to the museum requires a separate fee. Free Museum admission for ages 19 and under.)
The Mobile Hotshop takes the live glassmaking experience on the road, bringing the artistry and education of glassmaking beyond the walls of The Corning Museum of Glass – to the public, the design community, and museums worldwide. The Hotshop uses unique glassmaking equipment to recreate a state-of-the-art studio environment. At venues around the world, in conjunction with exhibitions, events, and art and design initiatives, the museum’s gaffers demonstrate complex hot glassmaking techniques.”
