>> DE GLAZEN JUNGLE
(The glass jungle) Leerdam 'Africa
on the Linge' 600 year celebration (Netherland) with Kenya Glasblowers
from Kitengela Glass,
National Glasmuseum in Leerdam opening the exhibition 30 june, 08:00
pm.
After a whirlwind two week trip to Holland, Anselm, Simon and Richard
are safely back in Kenya with many tales to tell of their adventures.
These included demonstrating for more than three thousand audience
members at the Glass Centre, working in the Royal Leerdam Crystal
factory and preparing for the Glass Jungle exhibition at the National
Glass Museum in Leerdam. They worked with Bernard Heesen and Arnout
Visser at Bernard's Oude Horn studio. They were featured several times
in Dutch newspapers and TV - the main attraction being Richard, the
only Masai glassblower in the world, blowing glass in his shuka (traditional
masai dress). |

The
Big Dalle de Verre Wall for Old Museum linked with New Museum, approx
5m x 6m. Here too as usual we are way behind, although all is agreed
and a large scaffold put up. We are waiting for contractor to install
frame to hold our large and heavy panel, he has been very tardy.
Also no money has been seen which would really be helpful to buy
materials. But Nani has been busy collecting fossils for part in
the wall and the bench below. |

- |
St
Maries Hospital 3 panels in big new wall, for next year.
This is complete and looking great. Not yet installed
awaiting architect's instructions. |
