Glass Artist Josh Simpson At The Block Museum

Internationally renowned and exhibited glass artist Josh Simpson will discuss his work and his artistic process in a special summer event at Northwestern University. Josh finds inspiration in the colors and complexity of nature, from oceanic worlds to celestial phenomenon. Join Josh for this special program at 11:00 a.m., co-sponsored by the American Craft Exposition (ACE). A 10:30 a.m. coffee reception will precede the discussion.

Simpson’s intricate glassworks will be on display and for sale during the annual American Craft Exposition, one of the country’s premier fine crafts shows, that will be held from August 26 to 28, at Northwestern’s Henry Crown Sports Pavilion, 2311 N. Campus Drive, on the University’s Evanston campus. The August exposition also is a major fundraiser supporting critical ovarian cancer research and care at NorthShore University HealthSystem.
