The Page Hazlegrove Lectureship in Glass Art was created in 1997 to honor the memory of Page, who brilliantly directed the Glass Lab from its beginning in 1988 until her untimely death in 1997. During her life, it was a dream of Page’s to invite young and upcoming artists to MIT to use the Glass Lab and other resources of the Institute to deepen their artistic visions. Page believed that an annual artist-in-residence would also be a valuable experience for students in the Glass Lab.

In this spirit, the Hazlegrove Lectureship was born, and since 1997 a number of outstanding artists working in glass have been invited to MIT to lecture, do research, conduct workshops, and use the Glass Lab to further explore their own work.
