Stop & Stare: Route One Entrance to Riversdale Mansion

If you’ve traversed Route One before (as in, the literal road. Not me. That wouldn’t be cool. 😆), then you’ve passed this sign below before but have you ever taken the time to read what it says? (No judgments; it’s taken me over three years to do so.) Turns out, this sign on the triangle […]

Fluorescent Motherhood. “Rips” by Amy Hughes Braden

Glassblowing at DC GlassWorks and Sculpture Studio, Edmonston

DC Glassworks Studio

At last year’s Hyattsville Arts & Ales Festival, I struck up a conversation with local glassblower Beth Hess at her Wunder Around booth, stocked full of colorful, beautiful pieces of blown glass. I was so curious about the glassblowing process that I kept asking Beth a bunch of questions like; how do these different colors appear and not bleed into each other? How are the shapes are made, etc. What is your sign? (Just to mix it up. 😉) All was going well until I noticed I was holding up the line, so we parted ways with so many questions left unanswered. I’ve been empty ever since, which is why I was elated when Beth reached out recently to let me know that DC GlassWorks and Sculpture Studio was having an open house. Glassblowing demonstrations and more opps for my questions-a-plenty? SO. THERE.
