Between Us examines the inherent value and creative potential of self, collaborator, family, and the broader human community.

Working collaboratively since 1979, renowned artists John Littleton and Kate Vogel create sculptural, blown, cast glassworks, and installations that speak to the importance of their relationships to one another, their family, and community. This retrospective exhibition highlights important works, milestones, and innovations in their shared careers – all while tying their experiences and influences back to John’s father, Harvey Littleton.

Dedication of Celebrating Muskegon

One of the best parts of working on a large project is the great people you work with. Image of setup crew and volunteers. April 22, 2021

Today started with snow and ended with sunshine. Just one more ring to place before we call it a day. April 21st, 2021

Removing rigging from the top ring of sculpture, there were spectacular views of lake Michigan.

John and Kate on the scissors lift attaching the fourth ring.

Finally setting up "Celebrating Muskegon" our 22.5 foot tall sculpture. Yesterday we anchored all the base plates. Image at the end of the first day of working on assembly with the Littleton Vogel setup crew. It's colder than we hoped for but the beautiful setting makes up for the weather.
