Tain & District Museum presents

“Smashing Glass”

Saturday 1st May

A Glass Workshop with Andy McConnell and Jill Turnbull

The workshop will cover 5,000 Years of Glass with a special detour to look at Scottish Glass.

The day long programme comprises 4 sessions with appropriate breaks for refreshments and lunch.

Employing his distinctively light, humorous and spontaneous approach, Andy guides participants though the ages of glass. He displays the contents of several packing cases full of examples from his 30,000-piece collection and encourages those attending to bring along their own glass possessions for discussion and appraisal. Jill covers Scottish glass with a presentation entitled 'From carboys to candlesticks, a journey through the glass made in Scotland'
