September 15, 2015 I had the privilege of going to Venice, Italy to be apart of the Glass in Venice/ Riedel Award. It was such a fantastic experience, especially getting to meet George Riedel in person. 

Please take a moment to check out some of the previous winners of the award on the Istituto Veneto di Scienze Lettere ed Arti website. (link below)
