Application Deadline: March 8 (Mon.), 2010
Purpose
The International Exhibition of Glass Kanazawa, first established in 1984 as the world’s only international glass exhibition with public call for entry, will have its 11th return in 2010. In each of the past events, the exhibition drew many excellent works from about 40 countries around the world, and it has been highly recognized as “the world showcase of contemporary glass art”.
Kanazawa City is renowned as one of the representative traditional cities in Japan. The city’s blessed natural environment with the fascination of four seasons has nurtured many traditional arts and crafts such as lacquer-ware and ceramics, which have been treasured and utilized as an integral part of the people’s daily lives. Under such circumstances, this exhibition has been repeated for the purpose of breeding in Kanazawa a new culture and an industry utilizing glass, expecting that it will help evoke creativity in other areas of arts/crafts and the existing local industries.
The executive committee hopes that this exhibition will help explore the potential of glass and look forward to receiving wide varieties of excellent glass works as ever, from daily utensils to new artistic expressions. It is our sincere hope that glass-lovers from every corner of the world will participate in this exhibition.

臺灣在地Colin牌家用烘培機、計時器（非常重要）、咖啡豆、點火器、噴水槍、濾網（要大孔的）
點火，烘豆機可用筒裝瓦斯或棒棒爐的小罐裝瓦斯
蓋上烘豆機上蓋，啟動馬達，就等待焇煙四起
約150度時，就可以看到豆子溼潤的水氣冒出，隔空取烟，可以聞到濃濃的青草味
