Video of Demo at the Corning Museum of Glass

In May of 2017 I spent a few days as Guest Artist at the Corning Museum of Glass and did demonstrations in their amphitheater hot shop.  The Thursday evening of my visit was one of their epic 2300 Degrees parties.  With the Museum open late, a live band and my demo being watched by a few thousand people (in the amphitheater and on the live stream) it was surreal and super good fun.  I was assisted by my regular assistant Ian Whitt who flew out with me to NY as well as the amazing glassblowers who comprise the  Corning Museum team including Jeff Mack, Chris Rochelle and Catherine Ayers.  Blowing glass in an unfamiliar studio is always a bit odd (like cooking in someone else's kitchen) but the team there made it as easy as possible and good fun.
