I discovered Seattle is a world centre for glass art and glass blowing. ​I had never properly considered glass as an art form but it was stunning.  

Chihuly is still a current force and important figure in the glass art movement around the Seattle area. ​

​

Here are some snaps I took from his permenant garden and exhibition. ​

and a short clip of the community team blowing glass in the demonstration area, at the end.

These folk are artists.
