Glass artist Flo Perkins discusses the Penland School of Craft. Oral history interview with Flo Perkins by Barb Elam, conducted via telephone, August 20, 2019, Bard Graduate Center. Clip length: 00:26.

Flo Perkins: My favorite place on Earth is Penland, honestly. And—because it’s also people enjoying life. It’s not even about having a good time. They’re enjoying life, and Penland is so gentle that way. And it’s such a nice cross process, cross materials, you know? You have people making books, you have people doing photography, textiles, glass, metal, wood, ceramics. It’s fabulous.
