Events
Event Name: Goblet/Large Vessel Workshop


 * Description: This event will consist of two evenings in the Lemelson hot shop. We will invite glass artist Jake Vincent to demonstrate the making of one of his large encalmo style vases and to teach some of the techniques involved. Having him come on two occasions will allow us to practice his techniques on our own time and let him see the finished result, as well as getting a chance to work on the torch with him right there. This will be a great opportunity for those interested in advanced flameworking to take their skills to new levels, as well being an interesting and motivating chance for beginner glassblowers to see large scale work being made. Each night will last for three to four hours in the shop. We will discuss glassblowing techniques as well as what its like to make a living blowing glass and managing a studio. Starting the nights with an informal pizza dinner will give us a good opportunity to get to know each other and seriously talk about some glass!
