After completing an MFA at the NYSCC Alfred in 1992\, she received a Fulbright\, an MAAA/NEA and other grants to research ceramics and create films. Her work has been placed in numerous public and private collections. Currently refining an accessible smokeless wood kiln\, she also teaches\, lectures\, and shows nationally and internationally. Orr’s ceramics lushly blend historical\, functional roots with organic\, fluid forms that embrace gentle asymmetry.

SUMMARY:FAMILY GLASS WORKSHOP: Tack Fusing\, Bouquets & Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:FAMILY GLASS WORKSHOP: Tack Fusing\, Bouquets & Landscapes\nSaturday\, May 30\, 2:00pm – 4:00pm \nIn this 2-hour workshop\, adults and children will learn the basics of glass fusing by creating one tile each (8” x 8”) that will be kiln-fired at 1400 degrees – a low temperature that allows the glass elements of your design to stay three-dimensional. To create your composition\, you will work with powders\, frit\, confetti\, copper shapes\, stringers\, and glass pieces. Landscapes and flowers are popular sources of inspiration\, but you are welcome to explore other ideas. Your instructor will fire your creation in his own kiln. The glass creations will be returned within 2 weeks\, mounted in a white shadow box or frame\, ready to be proudly displayed on a wall\, a mantel\, or a tabletop. \nCost per adult/child pair is $165.00. The workshop is open to adults and children 7 and up. Max 10 pairs of student/guardian – additional student $45 cost. No previous glass experience is necessary.
