I just shot this in the North End of Tacoma, looking across Commencement Bay toward Northeast Tacoma.
A group of people gathered on Mason Street to watch the show. One of them remarked, "This is better than the Fourth of July."The Museum of Glass, which is in Tacoma, Wash., is one of Wired Geek Dad's 5 Great Interactive Museums to Visit this Summer. Along with San Francisco's Exploratorium and Washington D.C.'s International Spy Museum, MOG is on Wired's must-see list for the summer.
The post even features a News Tribune produced video on MOG, narrated by our own Rosemary Ponnekanti.
Now, let's just hope visitors head here instead of Portland which is where Wired said MOG was before updating their post.
But if folks do get misdirected to Portland they'll still be able to visit MOG. But only on July 13.
MOG's mobile hot shop will be at the Museum of Contemporary Craft for Craft: PDX. MOG's Julie Pisto told me that the MHS was there a year ago for the museum’s grand opening and it was so popular that they were invited back.
After that, the next MHS venture is to Everett for an art festival called Fresh Paint on August 16 and 17.
