I’m thrilled to announce that my botanical glass sculpture, ‘Japanese Blossom’ was selected by a jury for the British Glass Biennale, part of The International Festival of Glass.

The American Glass Art Society, GAS, has announced that the first International Festival of Glass (IFoG) under its stewardship will be held at The World of Glass (TWoG) in St Helens, Merseyside, UK, halfway between Liverpool and Manchester.
