Three glass artists–Kale Haschak, Elizabeth Raybee, and Ferdinand Thieriot–whose work is included in the Museum’s current exhibit “Mastering the Molten: Mendocino County Art Glass,” will participate in a gallery tour and talk about their work.
Glass artists bend, cast, blow, carve and fuse their material in a variety of ways to fashion their creations, which may range from traditional vases of many shapes and sizes to abstract or figurative sculptures (such as those by Ferdinand Thieriot); mixed media work that involves incorporating a variety of non-glass objects (such as Kale Haschak’s “Gaff Rattle”); and glass mosaic compositions (the main medium employed by Elizabeth Raybee). Curator Karen Holmes notes, “We take this opportunity to celebrate the resilience of our communities and the beautiful creations that can arise from fire tamed in the hands of the master glassmiths of Mendocino County.”
The presentation is free with Museum admission: $4; $10 per family; $3 for students and seniors; free to all on the first Friday of the month; and always free to members.
