<div dir="ltr">Dear fans of glass and the MIT Glass Lab,<div>As many of you know, Venetian master Lino Tagliapietra has visited MIT several times over the last few years, and this May he will be returning for the first time since the Glass Lab has been renovated. Team Tagliapietra will be working in the Glass Lab from Monday May 16, through Friday, May 20.</div><div>Because space in the Glass Lab is so limited, we will be unable to admit the general public into the space during the week, but we <i>will </i>be live-streaming. Links to the webcams will soon be posted on the Glass Lab's website <a href="http://web.mit.edu/glasslab">web.mit.edu/glasslab</a>.</div><div>Another exciting bit of news is that the Schantz Galleries has found a space on Newbury Street in which to have a show of new work by Lino, and this show will be up during his visit. Attached is a press release with details. The public opening for this show will be on Saturday, May 14. This will be a good time to meet Lino and see the fruits of his recent labors.</div><div>Happy Spring,</div><div><br></div><div>Peter</div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:ii_in37nyev0_1541f5f51a4da512" width="365" height="544"><br><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">Peter Houk<br>Director, Glass Lab<br>Department of Materials Science and Engineering<br>Massachusetts Institute of Technology</div>
