Brian Kennedy spoke at the GAS Conference on "The Toledo Museum of Art Glass Workshops: Changing Contexts from the Early 1960's to Now".

In recognition of the Toledo Museum of Art's role as the cradle of the American Studio Glass Movement, GAS held its 2012 conference in Toledo, Ohio. In 1962, two experimental glass workshops held at the Museum proved that glass was a medium suitable for the expression of artistic ideas in a studio environment. They launched a movement that was propelled by an unprecedented collective enthusiasm and since has turned into an international phenomenon that continues to inspire experimentation. The conference was held at the Toledo Museum of Art.
