Why is it necessary for museums to host exhibits?

Launching on March 7th, 2022, "From the Ordinary to the Extraordinary"
These days, everyone is thinking an increasing amount about the planet and the impact that humanity has on it. How can we lessen our impact on the environment by lowering our carbon footprint while still making use of a material that doesn’t make much of a difference?
This exhibition posed a challenge to glass artists from all over the world, which was to create something new out of broken pieces of glass that would normally be thrown away. This could be a broken wine bottle or another type of container, or it could be shards of glass or broken pieces of glass.
In response to the aforementioned prompt, the CGS organized an online selling show that was open to glass artists from all over the world so that they could showcase their work. On each of our social media platforms, we are going to devote a portion of our content over the next few weeks to showcasing the work of these 48 creatives.
