Glass lampworking , the art of flame working glass, is a fascinating and dynamic thing to watch. Sage and Tom Holland are known as some of the pioneers in what is generally called The Contemporary American Glass Bead making movement which emerged in the 1980s. The art of melting glass and creating beads is over 4000 years old and holds a strong meaning in multiple cultures. Tom and Sage are active in the International Society of Bead Makers which elevates the growth and quality of the art. They also make sculptures , marbles and small vessels  A short list of some of their workshops and presentations are  Kansas City and St Louis Mo, Pittsburg Pa, Corning N.Y., Milwaukee Wi,  Bellingham and Seattle Wa , Albuquerque and Santa Fe NM.
