The Loveland Museum, nestled in wide open farm land about 50 miles from Denver, hosted a winter Womxn In Neon exhibition at the start of 2020. We worked with glass worker, Eric Franklin, on installation and were grateful to have his knowledge of glass to help install a great many works. We are grateful to the museum for producing a wonderful exhibition catalog, available for purchase through the museum.
Another incredible celebration was around highlighting a wonderful lineage and process of teacher and student present within our network. Sarah Blood, professor at Alfred University, is one of our members as well as two of her students, Carissa Grace and Lily Montgomery.
A special thanks to our exhibition sponsor, Topo Chico, for their continued support.

A super special highlight of this exhibition was to have had 13 artist travel for the exhibition to to take part in installation, live bending demos, a panel discussion, and of course an amazing reunion of so many ladies!
We are thrilled to introduce 4 new exhibitors to our roster for this edition of our exhibition: Carissa Grace from New York, Jessica Krichelle Rojas from Los Angeles, Julia Bickerstaff from England, and Alleson Buchanan from Seattle.
Our educational programming featured live bending demos from many of our artists, a panel discussion and a film screening of Las Vegas Bender, featuring Leticia Maldonado. Our discussion touched on the history of our medium, its experience in the art world, various artists concepts as well as a focus on ideas around inclusivity and sustainability.
