Discounts are available for groups of 12 or more, and serving military and veterans are always admitted free in gratitude for their service.

Tickets are available at ragtown.com or may be reserved by phone at (877) 724-8696.

Museum of TTU hosts art deco glass collection

The Museum of Texas Tech University, 3301 Fourth St., is hosting the exhibit “Art Deco Glass from the David Huchthausen Collection” through April 25.

Organized by Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Washington, this exhibit is from the Huchthausen Collection, which included early Twentieth century glass by iconic Art Deco studios such as René Lalique, Daum Frères, Pierre d’Avesn, Charles Schneider, Muller Frères, Marius-Ernest Sabino, Steuben Glass Works, and many others.

Characterized by smooth lines, geometric shapes, and bright colors, the Art Deco glass movement began, in part, as a reaction against the elaborate and ornate style of Art Nouveau in the late 19th century. Economic austerity generated by World War I launched Art Deco into popularity, with artists, designers, and architects throughout the world adopting the style. Although Art Deco fell out of fashion following World War II, the style regained its popularity in the 1970s.

Art Deco Glass from the Huchthausen Collection included more than 200 pieces from his personal collection, which is now composed of more than 300 works of Art Deco glass, much of it by European designers.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. Museum hours are Thursday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
