What can recycled glass tell us?
Join us at Stourbridge Glass Museum for a special seminar exploring the stories, sustainability and creative possibilities of recycled and ‘second-life’ glass.
Bringing together artists, makers and glass practitioners from the UK and internationally, the seminar will explore how discarded glass can become a material for storytelling, contemporary art, community and sustainable design.
Hear directly from artists and practitioners about their work, explore the changing perceptions of post-consumer glass and discover the challenges and possibilities of working with materials that already have a history.
The seminar will feature presentations and live contributions from international speakers, followed by a discussion exploring the future of
The Other Glass, its narratives and the emerging aesthetic of sustainable glass design.
