Abstract Details

2018, Master of Arts (MA), Bowling Green State University, History.
In 1962 the Toledo Museum of Art hosted the first studio glass workshop. For the first time, artists were able to experiment with glass as an artistic medium outside of the factory setting. This thesis investigates how the Studio Glass Movement began and grew within Toledo and the greater Northwest, Ohio area, with a focus on the social networks which made its formation possible. It argues that the Studio Glass Movement’s success was a product of cooperation between Toledo’s glass industry, educational organizations, community clubs and the artists themselves.
