8th Grade visit to Bob Burch's glass-blowing studio

Eighth graders took a field trip to master glassblower Bob Burch's studio, Brandywine Glassworks, in Putney.  They got an up-close view of this subtle art, asked fantastic questions, and got wonderful answers and demonstrations from Bob.  We are so grateful to him for opening his studio to us, and for his great words of wisdom!  Please note that he gives short introductory lessons making a paperweight for the very reasonable price of $35 - what a great gift idea for our young artists!
