Please join us on Saturday, September 6 for Transformations: a Wheaton Gathering, as we celebrate the 2025 Museum of American Glass exhibitions, Transformations: The Wasserstein Collection of Contemporary Glass and r e d u n d a n c i e s, an exhibit featuring artist David Schnuckel. Programming will also include The Art of Collecting: Where Objects Meet Experience, a panel discussion about the joyful journey of informed collecting, presented by Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass. Guest artists Joyce Scott, Therman Statom, and Tim Tate will join Alex Rosenberg in the Glass Studio for live collaborative demonstrations. The day will end with a special Cocktail Reception in the Museum of American Glass, catered by Feast Your Eyes Catering. All proceeds of the event will support the Museum of American Glass and WheatonArts Glass Studio programs, including the Creative Glass Fellowship Program. We hope that you can participate in this important celebration of our community, and our dear friends Linda and Henry Wasserstein.

Image of a piece of glass art from Judith Schaechter. The piece is square with a frame comprised of alternating dark blue and light blue squares that are separated by black lines and have a black tree-branch like design inside of them. The inside square of the piece is a light blue with a black six by five grid on top of it. Each light blue square created by the grid has small evenly spaced black dots inside of it. At the bottom there is a black and white section that uses the white to create a honeycomb-like pattern. On top of all of this is a small child with blonde hair wearing a red, orange, and black and white dress posing inside of a ring of flying birds.
