The Brychtová Forum
Women Artists Working in Glass
Celebrating Innovation and Vision across Generations

July 15 - 18, 2010, Seattle, WA

The Brychtová Forum - Women Artists Working in Glass: Celebrating Innovation and Vision Across Generations, a four-day series of free lectures, panel discussions and events, will be held at locations throughout the city from July 15 - 18, 2010. A collaborative effort by several prominent organizations involved with Seattle's glass community, The Brychtová Forum was conceived to celebrate the rich tradition of women working in glass while also recognizing the life and work of one of the most important artists in the history of the glass movement.

The Brychtová Forum includes opening night presentations by Ms. Brychtová and Czech curator Sylva Petrova, followed by a reception and special exhibition curated by Sarah Traver at Traver Gallery Seattle. The Forum also features panel discussions, a glassblowing demonstration, a documentary film on this important artist, a Pilchuck Glass open house, and a fundraising brunch and demo at Dale Chihuly's Studio.

The Forum is free, but participants must register in advance as space is limited. Online registration is available at www.pratt.org/happenings/forum.html.
