This is a two day event on Saturday 10 am – 5 pm and on Sunday 1 pm - 4.30 pm. We hope to hold an informal get-acquainted session on the Friday evening, a dinner on the Saturday evening, and possibly another activity on the Sunday morning.
Speakers who have confirmed are: Saturday:
Ian Turner (Monart), Kevin Holt (Ysart Paperweights), Dave Moir (Vasart & Strathearn Glassmaker), and Catherine Rae (Daughter of Vincent Ysart).
Sunday:
Brian Blench (The leading Scottish glass researcher), Peter Holmes (Paperweight master, trained by PY), and Ray Metcalfe (Paperweight dealer).
The talks will not address ‘basic’ information on glass, but rather present original and divergent views on Ysart glass in particular and on Scottish glass in general.
The cost for the event is £25, The memento will cost £90 and the dinner on Saturday night £20 per person. An auction in support of the Ysart Scottish Glass Fund will be held after the dinner.
