Free Last Saturday Demo: Rebecca Smith
Saturday, August 27 | 4 to 6pm
Every last Saturday of the month Glass Axis presents free demonstrations. Watch as a professional artist makes their personal best. This in-depth demonstration shows the step-by-step process and finesse of creating glass art. In July we feature Rebecca Smith.
Rebecca Smith is a graduate of Kent State University with a Bachelor of Arts in their jewelry, metal smithing, and enameling program. She continued her glass education at a number of small studios before accepting a position at the Pittsburgh Glass Center as a studio technician and head kiln forming instructor. Becky's art takes her into all the glass studios as she likes to combine techniques to make more unique work. This month she will be demonstrating chain making in the torch-working studio, using borosilicate rods of glass to make continuous links that she forms into wearable necklaces, bracelets, as well as using them in works of art.
