Museum of Glass (CMOG) emailed me the information below,<br>
she thought it might be of interest to PA & NJ glassblowers...<br>
<br>
When I read the phrase "enliven the museum experience" it makes me
think of the<br>
ballet of our "most extreme sport of the art world" in hot shop
glassblowing,<br>
and glassblowing is perhaps the only art where watching a piece of
glass being made is a captivating visual experience,<br>
as can be seen in the popularity of CMOG's Hot Glass Show.<br>

Museums across the country are engaging artists to rethink and
enliven the museum experience in new and innovative ways. What is
behind this trend? What does the artist's perspective bring to museum
collections, programming, and public spaces?<br>

discuss these and other questions with artist <span

style="font-weight: bold;">Elizabeth Armstrong;</span> and <span
