'The Art of Glass'

Jewels of Light and Quiet

More than 100 works from the Corning Museum of Glass are part of an exhibit at the IBM Gallery of Science and Art in New York which traces the history of glassmaking. Included are blown-glass vessels from Roman times, 15th-century Venetian glass, a glass table from Imperial Russia, and many examples of modern design. The exhibit will be on display in New York until Feb. 3, and in Washington, D.C., at the National Gallery of Art, from Dec. 2, 1990, until March 17, 1991.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
