Day 6


·        Co-Founding Artists of the Pittsburgh Glass Center, Kathleen Mulcahy and Ron Desmett, shared a vision in the early 1990's—to create an innovative glass art center that would transform our city.

·        Today, it is one of the top glass art facilities in the United States helping the city connect to its creative future through the innovative use of glass as art.

Assignment: Think about the terms “blowing glass.”  What do you think it means?

Journal: What is the point of blowing glass in this picture? Is he blowing pretty hard? Why? What would happen if he blew too hard? Think about the young “blower dogs” article that we read off of my blog. Think about younger students then you working long, hot hours in a glass factory. Research what laws came from these labor laws in glass companies.
