International Experience
2018
From April 9 – May 31 of 2018 my love of glass led me to extend my education outside the university setting that I began my learning in. I organized an independent glass tour to explore experiences and knowledge of the glass community far outside of what I had seen previously. In that time two colleagues, Dante Germain, and Lynnette Bierbaum visited, worked, assisted and/or demonstrated at:
London Glassblowing – London, England
Gent Glas – Gent, Belgium
The Gerrit Rietveld Academie – Amsterdam, Netherlands
BerlinGlas – Berlin, Germany
Backhaus-Brown Studio at Glasmedjen, Hundested, Denmark
Glasmuseet Ebeltoft – Ebeltoft, Denmark
Pust Glasværksted, Ebeltoft, Denmark
Tobias Møhl & Trine Drivsholm Glas – Ebeltoft Denmark
Joe Coel Studios – Tørshavn, Faroe Islands
