The Morgan Adams Project
Morgan Adams was a little girl who died of cancer. Her
Mother started the Foundation
to
raise awareness and funds for the support of children's
cancer and research.
I asked the children in the cancer unit of
Children's Hospital to draw a picture
and
write a story of their healing character and assign them
special powers. Twenty-five
children participated. We are making their drawings come
alive by blowing them, or
sculpting them into 3-D glass, done either in the furnace
or on the torch.
The comments form the children are amazing, with
most of them saying this was the
best project they have ever done, since it gave them a
chance to participate in the
fund
raising. They were incredibly enthusiastic and we are
grateful. The artists, also
expressed their gratitude with being a part of this event
and being able to do
something
completely foreign to them. They would love to do this
again. Overall, it is a win/win for everyone.
Thank you to all who participated. We are blessed
to have this great
glass community here in Colorado!
