Exhibit Opening: "Global + Local: Studio and Contemporary Glass on Florida’s West Coast"

The museum says that with its intense sunlight and coastal views, Florida is the ideal home for contemporary glass. "The region and the entire state have particularly strong examples of studio and contemporary glass in both private and public collections," the museum says.

This exhibit features 100 works from about 17 collections, including the museum’s own. Artists include Therman Statom, Michael Glancy, Harvey Littleton, Lino Tagliapietra, Dale Chihuly, Richard Ritter, William Morris, Sonja Blomdahl, Dante Marioni, Toots Zinsky, Yoichi Ohira, and local artists Duncan McClellan, Owen Pach, and Chuck Boux.

The exhibit runs through Sunday, Oct. 14.
