It's a bittersweet day in the office today as it's the last day of work for our Program Coordinator, Summer Rain. Summer's bright personality, warmth, and friendliness has brought a daily breath of fresh air to our front-office culture and she will be missed dearly in that capacity. However, we are excited that she will continue to be a fixture of GAK as she takes on a new role as Fusing Instructor - stepping away from the computer and into the studios to bring her contagious smile and patience to our students. Our offices will be CLOSED temporarily today from 1-2pm as we celebrate Summer with gratitude for the work she's done and enthusiasm for the artful path ahead! 🥂☀️ (fb)

Glass Art Kalamazoo is proud to present "Infinite Singularities", an exhibit of new work from glass artist Zam Sonnenfeld. On display = June 3 - July 25 "Artist Is In" Reception Friday July 11 | 4-6pm Refreshments and Artist Talk Free to attend with RSVP (please RSVP to info@glassartkalamazoo.org to attend) Glass Art Kalamazoo 326 W Kalamazoo Ave, Ste 100 Kalamazoo MI 49007 --------------------------------------- Infinite Singularities is an exploration of inner-space lending way to discoveries in outer-space. Navigating unknowns in the day to day has always been a practice in human life. The things surrounding the chaos of life have become a second thought, though they often facilitate the moments of connection and reflection that propel society forward. Infinite Singularity takes the critical thought and exchange from the gallery back into the living room, and invites the comfort of the living room into the gallery. Take time to ponder, share a moment with someone new, and discover the unknown together. So we might practice working together and reconnecting with small moments that make all the difference. Zam Sonnenfeld is a multi disciplinary glass artist currently making work in Kalamazoo, MI. After spending many years on the torch in the American Functional Art Movement she earned her MFA focused in glass at Rochester Institute of Technology. She has taught at Salem Community College, Wheaton Arts, Carlile Machine Works, and more. And currently is the Studio Manager at Glass Art Kalamazoo (GAK). Looking at the future she hopes to help grow the GAK programs and continue exploring more thought-based works in the ever evolving landscape of humanity. (fb)
