John Miller is known for his super-size glass hot dogs, hamburgers and fries, but HOLD the fast food! JOIN US for his weekend workshop "Melting Pot." October 6 & 7 9 am - 5 pm Don’t miss this exciting two-day workshop with John Miller at PGC. Anyone who has ever met John will tell you that his energy and enthusiasm for hot glass is contagious. His work pays homage to Claes Oldenburg, whose larger-than-life pop sculptures of everyday objects inspired John to investigate the translation of everyday goblets and glassware to oversize proportion. His jumbo wine and martini glasses (some holding as much as five gallons) have been exhibited nationally. The whimsy of John’s personality really comes through in these works and in his workshops. He can help you translate your WILD ideas into hot glass. In the "Melting Pot" workshop, John will cover cane and murrine. Although demos will be based on traditional Venetian glassblowing techniques, he will also cover mold-blowing and large-scale glassblowing. The workshop will include demonstrations where the students help John with his extravagant work, but will also include plenty of hands-on work time for students. Cost: $375 PGC Members Don't miss this rare opportunity to "Super-size It" with master glass artist JOHN MILLER
