The Evening for Educators at the Corning Museum of Glass was truly unbelievable! We read Making Light Bloom, Clara Driscoll and the Tiffany Lamps & then went into the museum to talk about the very lamp and windows we had just read about!

Before I left New York, I stopped by the NY Historical to visit their exhibition of #TiffanyLamps & take a pic with Clara Driscoll herself. My next book tour will be in Sept & Oct, when I'll swing through KS, DC, NY, NH & maybe other states too. Stay tuned...

Hellendag Unlimited Studio specializes in reproduction Tiffany stained glass lamps. They encourage you to visit, watch them build a lamp and ask as many questions as you like. They will be open for Art-A-Whirl in their studio (#06) on the lower level of the 1618 building. #artawhirl #tiffanylamps
When in #NYC, next to the #MuseumOfNatural#History is #TheNewYorkHistorical. Lots of interesting exhibits, particularly the #TiffanyLamps. And, #RobertMoses #biographer, #RobertCaro, who lives nearby, often speaks here. #tourism #travel
It's a starred review for Making Light Bloom! "Alongside delicate, design-oriented text by Nickel, Paschkis combines black outlines and luminous colors to make the pages glow like stained-glass itself." Thank you so much @publisherswkly.bsky.social!
