Sono Lino Film Screening
With special guest, Glass Artist Nancy Callan
08/03/2024 | 4:00pm - 6:00pm
SONO LINO is an intimate portrait of a generational artist and craftsman. It is a love letter to his pursuit of mastery, legacy, family and singular passion that carried his career across seven decades.
Lino Tagliapietra is widely held as the greatest master glassblower in history, beloved by millions across the globe. He began his journey with glass at the age of 11 as a factory worker in Murano, Italy, and now at 88, he prepares for his final hot shop session while grappling with age, identity and the struggle of watching his protégés continue his legacy as his famed career comes to a close. A master amongst masters and one of one artist in history.
Please join us for the screening of this unique and powerful documentary in the theatre of the Sandwich Glass Museum, 4-6pm on August 3rd.
