Glass Pumpkin Online Demo

Get entranced by the beauty, creativity and magic of the MIT Glass Lab with a live glass blowing demo via Zoom. Housed in the basement of the Dome/Infinite Corridor in Building 4, the Glass Lab is known for its spectacular Glass Pumpkin Patch each autumn and intriguing creations on the windowsill of their home in 4-003. Connected with the Ceramics Processing and Research Lab (part of the Department of Materials Sciences and Engineering - Course 3 - a department in the School of Engineering), the Glass Lab gives “MIT students, and the MIT Community at-large, access to an unusual medium for creative expression. Glass can be used to explore the wide array of ideas, from the functional to the purely sculptural.” Hosted by Peter Houk, Technical Instructor of the MIT Glass Lab.
