My wife and I have been planning a trip to New Zealand this November for a long time now. Last month I started looking online to see what the lampworking scene was like down there. I quickly realized there wasnt to much going on with borosilicate glass, at least what I could find online. I did find one distributor who is selling Glass Alchemy colors in a town north of Auckland. Seeing that they had a teaching facility on hand I offered to do a demonstration. They Accepted and I will be giving a free demo in Whangarei at Annie Rose on November the 8th. Ill attach a link to their site at the bottom.
My youngest brother, who lives in Australia has told me that New Zealand is a beautiful place. Unfortunately, I have never been there, but please post a blog on your trip (with pictures!), so we can see what we have been missing. Good luck with the demo over there.
