Here is a part of artist Rob Stern's bio from the Rickie Report:
Born in Miami, Rob Stern was reared in Atlanta where his mother taught art and his father worked in the movie industry and dabbled in photography. He attended San Francisco State University where he studied art and discovered glass making. He worked as an apprentice at John Lewis Glass, an industrial casting facility in Oakland, for five years.
The Benzaiten Center is an excellent place to hold events and special meetings. The Palm Beach County Planning Congress held a panel discussion there last year and Yours Truly was one of the attendees. You can read all about that here.
This is the artists working area at the Benzaiten Center. The meeting rooms along with completed works of art are in the same building. Contact Anita Holmes at 561-508-7315 for more information.
