A magnificent new addition is now available to view in the Library’s Special Collections Room. The Persian Tower, created by renowned American glass artist Dale Chihuly, stands nearly 10 feet tall and consists of 18 pieces of blown glass on a steel base accentuated by another 13 pieces mounted on the wall. The spellbinding installation was made possible through the incredible generosity of donors Lorraine G. and Donald R. Fair.

Displayed in museums and galleries around the world, Chihuly’s installations have captured the imagination of art enthusiasts and the general public alike. His ability to transform glass into breathtaking, larger-than-life creations has made him a celebrated figure in the world of contemporary glass art.
