The World’s Tallest Glass Tree at Yerkes Observatory is a family friendly public event. Rob Elliott and Jason Mack are striving to bring the community together to celebrate artists, creators, trades people, and sciences. Our goal is to provide a welcoming, inspirational event for all people to enjoy during the holidays. Through these partnerships, they build awareness and educate each other on how best to support the future of their community. To create a holiday tradition for generations to come.
Rob and Jason have been friends for over 25 years and have a powerful synergy when working together. Their friendship stemmed in 8th grade over the idea of creating a hang out spot in Jason’s parents’ basement. The hangout eventually turned into the first glass studio, they have been transforming spaces ever since. Both are each fathers, husbands and businesses owners outside of the World’s Tallest Glass Tree Event. Since 2007 they have been creating large community-based events centred around building hot glass sculptures. There is no limit to what they are capable of when they put their minds together.
