What happens on the day
Let your imaginations run wild as you learn how to transform a molten piece of glass into a stunning work of art!
This 1-hour class is fantastic for beginners and artists of all skill levels. A professional glassblower will welcome you into a one-of-a-kind hot shop featuring all the tools you’ll need to learn this ancient art form.
Before getting to work, you’ll pick a project and select from a rainbow of glass colors. Whether you decide to create a colorful vase, decorative pumpkin, or Christmas ornament, you’ll walk away with 2-4 pieces (1-2 per person) that are uniquely you!
With help from your expert instructor, watch as the glass transforms before your eyes. Discover how to melt, blow, reheat, and shape each piece. At the end of your experience, you’ll carefully place each piece into a special annealing oven. This process allows the glass to cool slowly and helps prevent cracking. Your completed projects will be ready for pick up the following day.
Embrace your inner artist with this Private Glassblowing Experience for Two!

FAQs
Can I take home my pieces after the class?
Due to the heating and cooling characteristics of glass, your creation must be left overnight at the studio, to cool in the oven and set properly. Items may be picked up the day after your class. Shipping is available for students who cannot pick up their pieces.
What happens if my piece breaks during the cooling process?
Sometimes breaks happen. If this should happen to you, you'll have to option to reschedule and remake your piece. If you cannot reschedule, the studio will remake your piece for you. No refunds will be offered.
Will my piece be perfect?
Glassblowing is an art form that takes years to master. If this is your first time, it is unlikely that your piece will come out exactly as you imagined it would. While it may not be perfect, your piece will be unique to you and will remind you of the incredible time you had creating it!
