apexart and Brooklyn Glass team up to host this Chopped-style glass pipe-making competition. Contestants are challenged to work with a mystery box of raw materials, and, in four hours or less, make the most creative functional pipe possible. Everyone gets the same components and no one knows what these materials are in advance. Pipes created for Competition Mystery Box Pipe Build will be judged by David Bienenstock (author of How to Smoke Pot (Properly): A Highbrow Guide to Getting High and former Head of Content at HIGH TIMES) and considered for inclusion in apexart's upcoming exhibition Outlaw Glass.
Special thanks to Northstar Glassworks, Portland, OR, for the classy glass donation.
