What happens on the day
Experience the magic of molten glass!
Your 1-hour class begins as soon as you step inside the hot shop. With guidance from an expert glassblower, you’ll see and experience the fascinating process of turning molten glass into a work of art.
You’ll create two unique pieces – from solid items like paperweights and bottle stoppers to blown objects including cups, bowls, and small vases. You can even personalize your projects with a variety of vibrant colors, ensuring your piece is one-of-a-kind.
Then, enjoy a refreshing sparkling beverage and light snacks during your visit. Your experience will conclude with a tour of the gallery and venue where you will discover stunning glassworks, rooftop views, and a dreamy garden oasis!
Please note: Hot glass needs to properly anneal before it can be taken home. Your finished pieces will be available for pick up a few days after the class.

We had a great time with our experience. Our instructor was clear, patient, and friendly. Highly recommend.
We had a blast at Ignite Glass Studios for our date night! We each got to create a piece and see the professionals working on pieces for Alinea as well! Joe was awesome, as was the space itself. 10/10 recommend.
