SUMMARY:Alexx Cheng - Studio Tour and Home Made Tools
DESCRIPTION:Alexx will be giving us a studio tour\, sharing the homemade tools and setups that make his workspace shine. We’ll take a look at custom arm rests\, a hand stabilizer\, rod warmer\, a simple polariscope for checking internal stress\, and he will also demonstrate a silver and gold foil vacuum box. Alexx will also show how to hook up a concentrator with a compressed tank as a booster for those times a bigger flame is needed. Bring your questions for a Q&A about everything glass related.

SUMMARY:Kit Paulson - Magpie Museum of Disorderly Inquiry
DESCRIPTION:Kit Paulson invites audiences into her Magpie Museum of Disorderly Inquiry\, the whimsical\, glass-filled world that occupies the front half of her studio. Known for transforming flameworked glass into unexpected objects—bonnets\, ornate masks\, delicate headpieces\, even sewing tools—Kit reveals how curiosity and contradiction drive her art. \nLike any true cabinet of curiosities\, her collection delights in misdirection; as she points out\, it’s “filled with blatant fakes. They’re not even fabricated in the right material.” This presentation explores the impulse to collect\, the pleasure of artifice\, and the imaginative possibilities of glass when it refuses to behave as expected.

SUMMARY:Josh Kitchen - Asheville Glass Supply
DESCRIPTION:After Hurricane Helene devastated Asheville\, NC\, it wiped out nearly all the local glass supply companies and studios. We saw our community suddenly left without access to the tools\, materials and support that working artists need to survive. \nSo we decided to step up – not just as another supplier\, but as a true hub.\nWe are building a community-driven supply center\, resource network and gathering point for glass artists\, makers and collectors. Our mission is simple: restore what was lost – and build something even better. \nA place where artists aren’t just supplied – they are supported\, seen and connected. \nwww.ashevilleglasssupply.com
