Coming March 18, 2006 - Fireworks of Glass

The Children's Museum of Indianapolis will unveil Fireworks of Glass – a 43-foot-tall sculpture constructed of more than 2,500 pieces of blown glass – March 18. Fireworks of Glass is the largest sculpture ever created by world-renowned artist Dale Chihuly. (You may have seen him on PBS. He's fascinating to watch! As my hubby says, "you know, that one-eyed glass-blower who doesn't wear safety goggles!") We can't wait!!!!!

These photos were taken when we went to the Museum last week. The blue circle you see on the floor will eventually be a revolving platform that you can lie on underneath the sculpture. You can see the glass ceiling already in place. The enormous glass sculpture will be above that and the entire thing will be lit up. It's going to be amazing! I can't wait to lay with Kaylee on the platform and see what she draws!
