Kids Design Glass
Draw your idea…
for something you’d like to see made out of glass. (You can use crayons, markers, paint, collage, etc., and the design is totally up to you—have fun and be creative!)
Fill out an entry form…
at the Museum’s Education Studio and turn it in with your design.
MOG glassblowers choose a winning design…
from the hundreds of entries (approximately one every month).
Watch us make your design in glass…
If we choose your design, we’ll call and invite you and your family to come to the Museum (for free). We’ll make one for you to keep and one for us.
We may include your design in an exhibition…
that would begin at the Museum of Glass and travel to other museums around the country.
About the Program
Kids Design Glass (formerly Design Your Own Vessel) has been a wildly successful and inspiring program for the Museum of Glass. The whimsical designs kids create stretch the talents of the Museum’s highly-skilled glassblowing team—and they love the challenge!
The Exhibition
Artwork from the Kids Design Glass program, the glass sculptures, the original designs and photographs documenting the process will be on display in one of our galleries as an exhibition opening September 20, 2008. After several months at the Museum of Glass, the exhibition will travel to other museums around the country.
The Katonah Museum of Art in New York just couldn’t wait, and we agreed to loan them a few pieces for a show they will have later this year.
