Dan Klein (1938 - 2009) was a founder of North Lands Creative Glass.
In memory of Dan Klein (1938 – 2009), a special fund has been set up at the North Lands Creative Glass center that he helped to establish in 1995. Klein’s vigorous support was a prime reason this glass center at Lybster in the north of Scotland was able to grow into an international destination for artists, curators, and collectors with a passion for glass. When he died in June 2009, Klein was a director of North Lands, as well as the chairman of its advisory board.
The appeal has the support of Klein’s surviving partner, Alan J. Poole, as well as the many organizations Klein was affiliated with, including the Cohesion Glassmakers Network, Contemporary Applied Arts, Contemporary Glass Society, Guild of Glass Engravers, Scottish Glass Society, and The Glass Association.
