CONTROLLED BURN

March 25 - April 25

Sometimes in an educational setting it feels like everything you know gets questioned, or even completely destroyed. Controlled Burn refers to this process of creation through destruction. Controlled Burn includes work by all the members of the Sheridan College Glass Studio’s 2010 graduating class, as well as selected works by first and second year students.
