PLEASE NOTE: We are expecting quite a few guests to attend our Opening Reception and Artist Talk with Paul Stankard on Saturday, May 17th, 2025 from 11am - 2pm. Admission on this day will be first come, first serve.

Paul Stankard blends the botanical and mystical, creating orbs and paperweights that hold a resplendent universe. Realms Within showcases examples of how this internationally renowned New Jersey artist is able to capture the beauty of nature and suspend it inside glass. Stankard currently serves as an Artist in Residence at Rowan University. This exhibition, hosted by the Heritage Glass Museum in partnership with Rowan University Art Gallery and Museum, provides an opportunity to see the evolution of Stankard’s technique and understand his impact on contemporary glass art.
