Curious about Grace Whiteside’s Performance Glassblowing Workshop: Glass Puppetry on June 26 & 27? Take a look at these stills from their most recent performance iteration of The Inflatables at Brooklyn Glass in NY.

Students will collaboratively develop and present a one-hour live glass puppet performance. Through hands-on exploration of glass animation, puppetry, and storytelling techniques, the class will build an original narrative that blends humour, spectacle, and material exploration.

Open to all experience levels, this is a great opportunity to explore your creative relationship with the medium and push the limits of your artistic practice in a fun and supportive environment!
