Trevor and I toured the Pilchuck Glass School with our homeschool meetup group. The school is located in Stanwood WA. It is built on a tree farm so it is beautiful and peaceful. The school is between classes right now so there were no students but there were a few artists there blowing glass. It was neat to see the different styles of fusing glass and blowing glass. What a fun tour.
This totem pole represents the people that helped build the school. Dale Chihuly is represented by the second one down that is holding the raven. Behind the totem pole is some of the cabins that the students stay in while attending the school.
This is Dan Friday working on a piece. We watched him for about 30 minutes. It was an amazing process. This piece will be silver and blue when it cools down. It is orange/red now because it is so hot.
This bridge has flags to represent every country that has had an artist attend the school.
