The Belger Glass Annex offers Introduction to Hot Sculpting, taught by assistant glassblower Jessalyn Mailoa, September 9 through 11. Jessalyn is a talented artist who incorporates glassblowing and hot sculpting techniques in her work. The workshop will focus on hot sculpting, a spot-heating technique that involves using a torch to sculpt glass. Students are encouraged to come with project ideas to employ new workshop techniques, and bring their projects to life.  To learn more about the workshop and Jessalyn, visit our website, or so sign up today. Space is limited and fills up quickly. 

Don't miss your chance to see and purchase Wesley Harvey's Digital Debut work. Wesley combines kitsch and pop culture imagery with geometric patterns, floral designs, and gold to create elaborately decorated functional work. Through the lens of queer theory, Wesley addresses and questions what it means to be gay, queer, and cisgender. Wesley's work is available online and at the Belger Crane Yard Gallery (2011 Tracy Ave., KCMO).

There’s still time to purchase mugs by July Mug of the Month artist Paul Maloney. The surfaces of Paul’s puckered, dimpled mugs infer song and verse. Influenced by musical notes on a page, contemporary graffiti, and traditional Korean stoneware (Punch’ong), Paul’s created expressive, abstract lettering that covers his mugs and references his poetry and songwriting. His mugs are available online and at the Belger Crane Yard Gallery (2011 Tracy Ave., KCMO).

 

Mugs of the Month can be purchased without a subscription. This means you can buy a mug by an artist you love when they become available. However, having a monthly subscription reserves your spot to receive a new mug before they are offered for sale to the public. Visit our website to learn how to set up a subscription and to view previous mugs of the month.
