Join Assistant Professor Dr. Hallie Meredith for an art historian and former glassblower’s perspective on select works of glass in the museum, including the Marian E. Smith Glass Collection, which highlights some of the most influential glass artists of the Pacific Northwest. From ancient functional objects such as mirrors and vessels to the most imaginative contemporary sculpture, glass objects are undeniably fascinating, both for their aesthetic qualities and as artworks that challenge us to consider the possibilities of their transformed raw materials. As an expert in ancient glass and a proponent of embodied learning, Dr. Meredith will share her unique interpretation while encouraging open discussion among tour participants.
This tour will convene in the Samuel E. Smith Center for Undergraduate Education (CUE) in the atrium on level 2 at 4 p.m., then move to the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU around 4:30 p.m. A reception for the exhibition “Your Collection: Faculty Remix” will immediately follow this tour.
Location: The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU is located in the Crimson Cube (on Wilson Road across from Martin Stadium and the CUB) on the WSU Pullman campus.
