Glass Blowing with Stephen Kitras
Even among blown glass artists, Stephen Kitras’ craft is unusual. His tumblers, bowls and vases are not blown into a mould, but each is original, with subtle variations in form that are the signature of a Free Glassblower. Visitors can watch as Stephen gathers glowing molten glass on the long blowpipe from a furnace heated night and day to 2,300 degrees. He shapes it in a second fire, the reheating chamber, then twirls and swings it, expanding the glowing ball periodically with quick, hard injections of breath. The form expands and takes shape before our eyes through a process demanding intricate coordination, speed, agility, and the three dimensional vision of a sculptor.

Elora Fergus Studio Tour
EVER WONDER WHAT AN ARTIST’S STUDIO REALLY LOOKS LIKE?
Here’s your chance to get a look behind the scenes. Take a self-guided tour and meet artists where they live and work. Many artists and craftspeople will open their studios for two consecutive fall weekends.
The Studio Tour is completely free of charge. You’ll get a chance to meet directly with the artists, and often see work not shown in gallery settings. You’ll visit the working spaces of both established and emerging artists, from basements to self contained studios.
