BIGG Glass Art Tour Series: Touch Tour

Friday, September 18, 2009 - 1:00pm - 2:00pm

This summer Columbus has become a hotspot for glass art as a variety of art spaces in the city host glass exhibitions and events. Join the fun and wonderment at the OSU Urban Arts Space by participating in a variety of thematic tours of our current exhibition, BIGG: Breakthrough Ideas in Global Glass. This BIGG Glass Art Tour Series takes place on Friday afternoons throughout the upcoming months, offering interactive, and informative discussions, touching on a variety of issues and ideas presented in these breakthrough artworks.

Feel the artwork! As a part of our commitment to accessibility, OSU Urban Arts Space offers touch tours that allow visitors to handle additional art pieces and materials provided by the artists.  These hands-on experiences provide another dimension and deeper understanding about the artworks.  This tour will be an extended version of our usual impromptu touch tours, and includes in-depth visual description of the works..

To attend one or many of the tours in this series please RSVP to uaseducation@osu.edu or 614.292.8861 five days in advance as space is limited to 20 guests per tour.  In your RSVP please specify which tour(s) you wish to attend, how many will be attending, and if you have any special needs.  Tours will be held at the OSU Urban Arts Space.

OSU Urban Arts Space also encourages large groups to schedule a separate tour through uaseducation@osu.edu.  We would love to host your group for a similar topic based tour or a general tour of the Space.
