For the FIRST TIME EVER we are going to teach you to make your very own glass pumpkins! This means that you will still be doing all the usual stuff – picking your colors, working at the reheating chamber and bench, holding the glass on the rod, BUT now you will also be blowing into the pipe – something we are asked for on the regular but held off on doing until we were sure we could make it safe and enjoyable for everyone! This is going to be so fun…
we’re making a party out of it!
In addition to making your own pumpkin, we’ve been playing around with some new pumpkin designs,
including a ton of one-of-a-kind artwork that should not be missed because we won’t be making them again.
We are offering a special discount, so register now!
Workshops, art glass, a discount, and of course hot cider and donuts – what more could you want!?
After a short break this summer, our glassblowing life is starting all over again in the crisp fall!
The glassblowing workshops are a hands-on experience like no other. Our amazing glass artists are ready to guide you every step of the way, regardless of your skill level. Adults and children (6 years and older) will use various hand tools and age-old techniques to create a unique glass sculpture of their own, while learning about the creation of glass art and the many beautiful forms it can take.
Each registered participant may choose their own glass colors before working with one of the professional studio artists to create a vibrantly colored pumpkin in front of the 2000+-degree studio furnaces. Then, as you hold the steel rod, turn the glass, and use artisan tools, you can watch the glass turn from liquid to solid in a magical transformation.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable way to experience the beauty of glass art, our workshop is the perfect opportunity. From discovering the secrets of glass art to creating your own sculpture, these hands-on workshops promise to be a unique and fulfilling experience. It is the perfect activity for couples and families. So why wait?
Remember: You’ll need to come back to the studio for pick up once your project has cooled down. If the studio is far away, we can ship your piece to you at a flat rate of $12. We recommend wearing comfortable clothes, closed-toed shoes and pulling back longer hair. We also have safety glasses available for use during your glass making session.
