- …another development is already underway at the Morean Arts Center itself, the organization responsible for bringing the Chihuly showcase to St. Pete. Behind the Morean's home base on Central Avenue, an open-air glassblowing hotshop that opened last weekend spotlights the process behind blown glass, giving some of the Bay area's biggest glassblowing talents a chance to shine in front of a live audience. – Megan Voeller, Creative Loafing
- When the Morean Arts Center in St. Petersburg debuted its collection from world-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly this summer, it also opened up a studio to show people how glass art is made. Demonstrations take place all day long at the Hot Shop with artists who show people everything involved in glass art. – Virginia Johnson, Bay News 9
