I heart Dale Chihuly.. thanks for the great references!
I have been lucky enough to experience two of Dale Chihuly's exhibits! I love doing a unit on glass blowing with my students!
I love Chihuly too! The Indianapolis Children's Museum has a permanent 3 story high Chihuly sculpture that is fabulous along with hands on activities for the kids to understand his work.
