Play
 
Never before has a city presented simultaneous Chihuly exhibitions at
both its conservatory and its museum. Most places in the world will
never have an opportunity to host a Chihuly show. How is it that Dale
Chihuly has returned to Columbus to work with the Columbus Museum of
Art and Franklin Park Conservatory five times in the past decade?

Explore the connection between Chihuly and Columbus. Hear the
stories behind how the Conservatory and the Museum worked with Chihuly Studio and each other to bring our community a yearlong celebration of the work of this world renowned artist.

Join Columbus Museum of Art Executive Director Nannette V. Maciejunes and Franklin Park Conservatory Executive Director Bruce Harkey for an
enlightening and informative exploration of Chihuly in Columbus.
