Field Trip Time at the Niche Modern Glass Studio

Written by Mary Welch | 3/19/12 6:13 PM

We had such a blast this week when my daughter's 2nd grade class came to visit the glass studio at Niche Modern! We put cones around the work station as a safety precaution but the kids were so completely spell bound as they watched Adam and the team work with the glass that they were literally frozen in place. One of the teachers commented about how beautiful our team is to watch because they move around each other as they work in a kind of complicated, wordless dance that is so graceful it seems choreographed. One of the 8 year old girls was especially excited to meet Annie and see living proof of what she called: "an awesome girl glass blower!" We were reminded of how special our Niche Modern crew is and how inspiring their teamwork and collective skills are. Who knows: maybe a seed was sown and a future glass blower will emerge from this field trip one day!
