Last week, after attending a Mark Twain conference in Elmira, NY, I stopped at the Corning Museum of Glass on my way home. The museum houses a vast collection of historical glass which I have seen many times, but I especially like the ever-changing exhibits of contemporary works by glass artists from around the world. You will probably be seeing many of the works from the museum over the next few months because glass casts such unique and beautiful shadows.
