Free Tour Hentrich Glass Museum at mkp

October 7th 7.30pm 

reservations necessary
tour now full - we will repeat this in the New Year

The Hentrich Glass Museum housed within the museum kunst palast is one of the largest glass collections in Europe, including a section of medieval glass which I’m told is one of the most important in the world.
Many are unaware that this treasure is there in the Ehrenhof, but many of you have been surprised to discover it now on our way to the studio at mkp for our fabulous art sessions.

On Thursday October 7th at 7.30pm we are very pleased to be offering you the first RhineBuzz tour in English of this magnificent collection.
Dr. Dedo von Kerssenbrock-Krosigk, world specialist on glass, head of the Hentrich Glass Museum and former curator of European glass at the great Corning Museum of Glass in New York, will guide us expertly though the museum. He will share his vast historical and technological knowledge with us in a very easy going manner.

The tour is generously sponsored by museum kunst palast especially for the RhineBuzz community so make the most of this rare chance to experience this magnificent collection up close.
Entry to the collection is €6, if we are 10 or more it will be reduced to €4.50. Places are limited, so please reserve with us at mkp@rhinebuzz.com


There is a very beautiful exhibition of Glass by Lalique and Schneider currently at the exhibition hall of the Tonhalle. It's free and well worth a look.

Schneider France ca. 1927-29

Many of the exhibits originate from the vast collection in storage at the museum kunst palast. I was most fortunate in that Dedo von Krosigk took the time to show me around the space last week. Quite Incredible.
