"The Glass Art
Celebration!"
Wyoming's largest glass art show is returning for its sixteenth season. The
show runs for ten days from Friday, February 11th through Sunday, February
20th, 2011 at the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens in Lions Park. The show is open to both
amateur and professional glass artists.
Glass at the Gardens is professionally judged with ribbons and a cash awards
for both amateurs and professionals. The show is not limited to stained
glass but also features painted, melted, 3-d and fused glass along with
glass bead work.
The Cheyenne Botanic Gardens provides a unique setting for the artistic
creations in the natural light of the conservatory. According to
Botanic
Garden Director, Shane Smith, "A greenhouse conservatory provides the
absolute perfect
setting because of the natural bright light and beautiful
combinations of iridescent glass colors, flowers and plants. The glass
pieces come alive when they are illuminated in a greenhouse."
You will not only see beautiful glass art but you will also enjoy the
tropical paradise always found in the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens conservatory.
The winter months are the most colorful time of year inside the Botanic
Gardens conservatory. A simple visit cures even the worst case of cabin
fever. The Garden is free and open to the public during the show. Special
show hours will be from 8:00-5:00 on weekdays and from 10:00-4:00 on
Saturday and Sunday (Feb. 12th and 13th and 19th and 20th) 2011.
