I have been working with glass for about three years, and I&#8217;m now in my senior year at Ball State University with a major in Glass Art.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern1.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern1.jpg\" alt=\"Kern1\" width=\"549\" height=\"700\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern1.jpg 549w, https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern1-235x300.jpg 235w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 549px) 100vw, 549px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>ZAPP:<\/strong> How many shows do you usually do per year?\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Justin:<\/strong> I typically try to do about 8 -10 shows a year, mostly in Indiana and nearby states, but I&#8217;m in the process of hopefully bumping that up to 15 show a year. I have recently been receiving awards and many other offers for my work, so to keep that train rolling I decided to apply to as many shows as I could so that I can have some sort of following when I graduate next spring.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ZAPP:<\/strong> Why do you want to attend the Arts Festival Conference this year?<br \/> \n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Justin:<\/strong> I hope to gain more experience with getting work out in the Western states; it seems like glass is a difficult medium to sell in the Midwest. I have never been [to the Arts Festival Conferences] before, but I can&#8217;t wait to go this year and I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s gonna be a great experience. I hope to gain some fans of my work and the experience the other artists can provide. I mainly applied [and entered the contest] because I&#8217;m trying to breakout of Indiana and test the waters outside of my home state.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern2.jpg\" alt=\"Kern2\" width=\"700\" height=\"465\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern2.jpg 700w, https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern2-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.zapplication.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Kern2-451x300.jpg 451w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can see more of Justin&#8217;s work at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.justinkernglass.com\/\">http:\/\/www.justinkernglass.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To register for the conference or find more information about the event, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/zappcon\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/zappcon.<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Justin Kern is the week one winner of social media contests that ZAPP has been running to promote the fifth annual Arts Festival Conference.
