SUMMARY:Lecture : Amy Archambault on Balance
DESCRIPTION:In a 2018 interview in BostonVoyager magazine\, AMY ARCHAMBAULT offered this advice to aspiring artists “Authenticity\, Persistence and Balance… Being an artist is being disciplined to make every effort to let that part of you shine. To be curious\, to engage\, to research\, to put yourself out there\, and to simply DO WORK.” \nShe has followed her own advice of actively “doing work” since 2011 after receiving her MFA from the University of Pennsylvania. Archambault’s work expands elements of collage into three-dimensional forms; creating hybrids of functional human-scale objects with inventive geometric abstractions and large interactive structures. She excites the viewer’s wonderment from their child within— the happy infectiousness of curiosity and inquisitive experimentation that is in all of us throughout life. \nArchambault will inspire wonderment with a talk about her creative process and most recent projects. \n  \nView her work at www.amyarchambault.com.

SUMMARY:Intro to Flameworking
DESCRIPTION:This class will be an overview of Flameworking\, aka Lampworking. It is a two part class: \nDay One: BEADMAKING \nThis class is where all new students start their flameworking education.  We’ll learn the basics of making lampworked beads at the torch or “lamp.”  We will be melting glass rods in the flame and forming the beads around metal mandrels.  This is a great way to get started with working hot glass in the flame.  It’s very fun and quite forgiving (for a molten\, hot\, and fragile medium). \nDay Two: BOROSILICATE GLASS \nMoving beyond beads we will explore a different type of glass and many new techniques to utilize in the pursuit of controlling molten glass.  We will make marbles\, pendants\, and small sculpture (time permitting) all in borosilicate or “pyrex” glass.  New tools are introduced along with new challenges. \nDifficulty: Beginner \nDuration: 2 days\,  3 hours each
