Remember Josh's Zoom Talk, this Friday!
One Crazy Corona Summer
This summer has been a wild ride, but Simpson Glass has cautiously survived and we hope that you, too, are doing well. When the pandemic began, the vibrantly colored glass that Josh named "Corona" 40 years ago suddenly seemed a liability. We all wondered: should we change the name? Josh refused! He said that was the name he chose and we would just have to deal with it.
 We've been surprised and humbled by your response! It turns out that many of you see Corona glass as a bright spot during these difficult times. Some have said that these pieces represent a memento or token of our not so great experiences as well as triumphs in the past months. This feels like an honor to us, and we are so grateful!
Earlier this year Josh made new Planets in both Corona and Blue New Mexico Glass. Here are a few. Click any button or photo below if you'd like to see more.

Planetoid Collection
Interested in becoming a Planetoid Collector? Want to surprise a friend or loved one with a gift that lasts all year?
Each Planetoid Collection contains a stellar assortment of 12 Planets in various styles, including Large Inhabiteds, Otherworlds, Gravitrons, and more. Each month, we will choose a unique one and send it (free shipping) with an acrylic ring stand. A great gift, maybe even for yourself!
Josh's FREE Zoom Webinar about Glassblowing is this Friday, 9/11, Noon to 1PM (Eastern)
Join Josh for a slide show and brief interview, followed by audience Q&A moderated by a WGBH Boston host. Register here in advance to receive a link and password to enter this virtual Zoom webinar, where you will be able to send in your own question.
It's a nice way to spend a lunch hour!
 Can't abide a boring glass talk? Most people think Josh's presentations are more effective than taking sleeping medication. Why not record it and play it back at bedtime if you have trouble falling asleep? Or, just opt out below.
