The new show will present about 85 pieces from baskets to "Pilchuck Stumps," plus stuff from Chihuly's private collection of objects ranging from Native American baskets and wool blankets to canoes and Edward S. Curtis photogravures. And it will include a large walk-in installation inspired by the Northwest Room from his Seattle Boathouse.

The new Chihuly show, Dale Chihuly's Northwest, opened on the day the rapture was supposed to happen and will run through September.
