Coolest experience. I gave my wife a gift certificate and ended up going with her. Alex was our glass guide, and he's just stellar at working both glass and people. We had a one hour class and came home with 2 pieces each!! Beautiful ones that we feel like made, but with expert assistance. Will go again and will give gift certificates as gifts. Cheers! read more

Fabulous experience! The staff is so nice and helpful and they made the process so seamless. Will definitely be coming back! read more

One of my sorority sisters recommended this place. Several of us booked one of the class sessions together on a Sunday morning. There were others in the class that weren't with our group. Doing a private class is much more expensive. As is, it was $70 for this particular class. Read the prerequisites in advance and follow the instructions for your safety. You need to wear closed toe shoes, pull your hair back, and wear all cotton clothes. It's hot, especially during the summer months when the kilns are baking and the outside temperature is extreme. I was told that the last time my ZTA sister was there, one of the workers passed out because of the heat. Take the precautions seriously. Arrive early! Complete your waiver forms online before you come. You will create your artwork in the order you arrive. This is okay if you don't want to go first and don't mind waiting. Sadly, I was the last to arrive, so my ZTA sisters had to wait and watch every single student make their piece until I went. You will do less than you think. All of it is guided and you will have someone holding the hot poker WITH YOU the entire time. This is a good thing because you can relax and enjoy the experience without the fear of messing up. The biggest worry you will have is what color or colors to choose for the piece you decide to create. I went with the flower which was more complicated than the hummingbird feeder. I used the colors teal and nebula. These colors were so popular, they didn't have enough at the end, so they laid my glass shards on the table where I rolled them into the piece instead of dipping them like everyone else. You will need to return a week later to pick up your piece. It takes time for the glass to cure without thermal shock. I'm likely to come back and do this again, but I might do it with the ash remains of a loved one. They have these beautiful pieces that you weave the ashes into and then everyone can take a piece home of their loved one. I found this experience intriguing and would encourage others to give it a try too. read more

Very friendly fun knowledgeable staff. Took their time and explained the process. Will definitely return for new pieces.

This was so much fun! Guillermo is an AMAZING instructor. We booked package 2 for 2 people and got to make a total of 6 pieces. Traci greeted us when we came in and helped us pick out which pieces we were going to make and what colors. She's awesome. Guillermo started by making an ornament to show us the entire flow and from then on we got to do pretty much everything except blowing in the pipe / tube, which I understand. You don't want everyone's mouths on there. He was super helpful and explained everything to us answering any questions we had along the way. You could tell he absolutely loves what he does and enjoys sharing his passion with others. The 1.5 hours went by so quickly. Even when we messed up, he'd be like "perfect, that's peeeeerfect, now I'm just going to take this from you and adjust it real fast" lol. He's fantastic. We both had a huge smile on our faces the entire time. I'm not sure why there's so many reviews saying the instructors do everything and you don't get to do any of it. That's completely untrue. For the first pieces there was obviously more guidance, but by the end, we did pretty much everything except gather and holding the pipe when the piece was knocked off. It's not nearly as hot in there as I thought it would be. We were in jeans and a short sleeve shirt and were fine. There was plenty of cold water that you could get at any time and he explained where to stand to protect yourself from the heat. We'll be taking all our family and friends here when they're in town to experience this! Highly recommended! read more

Very nice, friendly and welcoming personnel. After you sign-in and complete the waivers they explain the process and you get to pick the frit mix (small chips of colored glass) that you are going to use for your project. Then they conduct a demonstration of what you will be doing. And finally, you go in the order of your arrival to fabricate your glass piece. Here's where the experience fell short for me.... First, I wish you really got to make the glass piece and actually learned something about glass blowing. They really make the piece for you. $70 per person for what you get is not great value. So if three people go you're at $225 with tax. Remember, you are paying for the experience, I keep telling myself but it's not changing my opinion. I felt very rushed through the process. Was really looking for more of a learning and creative exercise than being pushed through the steps. This is a very hot activity for 107 degree summer days, if you still choose to experience glass blowing, then it is best to come when it's cooler outside. They have no problem booking up and you have to register well in advance, but I just crossed this off my list.... been there, done that, next. read more

This is a hot date activity literally, and figuratively! If you're a fan of glass, this is a must try. Super fun, extremely interesting process, and you get to make some really amazing items. Can't wait to get the finished products in the mail. Instructor was very informative, and gave a great presentation on how to make awesome items, and have fun while doing it. We think were gonna need a return visit to make some other things! Highly recommend! read more

I bought my husband and I a class for a joint Christmas present this past holiday. Hubby was a little skeptical of why glass blowing.... But it was so interesting! And fun! And really really hot. I can't imagine doing it is summer. Registration online was super simple. We were first to arrive last Sunday and they checked us in right away. We also met the resident pooch, Chai. A sweetheart. We had signed up for the beer and wine glass class and we got to pick out our color combos. Being first there also meant I got to be the first to go! There were 3 instructors and to be honest, they do most of the work but they explained the process and you are actually assisting. We are headed to pick up our finished product since it's about 900degrees when finished and they use a very slow cool down curing process. Photos of our masterpiece s to follow. read more

Booked a class for two and it was fantastic!! We had Guillermo and Liz and they couldn't have been better. Demonstrated at the beginning and towards the end we were doing almost everything ourselves. 10/10 would recommend and will be going back. read more

The two hour public class is about 10 minutes of actual hands-on glass making (each participant goes one at a time.) You could spend up to an hour and 50 minutes sitting around waiting for your turn. It was incredibly boring. I ended up leaving over an hour after class started without touching any materials or tools or taking home the item I paid for. They will not give you a refund. If you decide to take a class definitely bring a book, crossword puzzle, or SOMETHING to keep you occupied while you wait. Be prepared to forego your class fee even if you are unable to participate or don't enjoy yourself. read more

It's always great fun to take a class here. This is the third time we have taken a class.

My wife purchased a public class for valentines, I had no idea what to expect. Everyone there was super nice and answered all the questions. We even stayed back and talked to the artist. It looked complicated but they guide you through the whole process, it is mostly hands on except for using the main glass foundry. We were the last to participate, but that had the added benefit I watching everyone else, which alleviated a bit of nervousness and they spent a little extra time with us because we were last. read more

Fun celebratory experience with my two adult sons. Informative, and very hands on. Not something we will forget. Recommend spending the extra for a private experience if you have a group because if there is a class of 10 or more someone goes last and your watching everyone before you make their item. Also as you can expect, it is hot inside in the Texas summer read more

Great way to try a new medium. Definitely worth a try but I'd recommend doing this in the winter time.

What a fun time! The staff is great too. Really great experience. They also have finished products for sale at reasonable prices.

It was a blast! It was also hot so if you do it, do it when it is cold outside if you can. You will be working close to the glory hole which is well over a thousand degrees and the radiant heat from that alone will make your hands feel rather toasty. My wife and I booked a private lesson for her birthday. The deal we did was a 90 minute class that cost $295 (I think this price has gone up to $325). If you are prepared and work quickly, you will both be able to make about four items. There are bigger classes but you may be there with 20 people and they only work with a few at a time so you may only get to make one thing and spend the rest of your time watching other people. With just the two of us, it was very interactive. Lots of questions back and forth and lots of fun. Kind of the difference between a group ski lesson and a private lesson. You really do get what you pay for. By prepared I mean know what you want to make. For all three class types there are certain kinds of things you can make and things you can't. Look on their website in advance. Know what you want to make and have a rough idea of what colors you want. We went in with a list of colors and quickly found out that there were some colors they just don't have. Grey for example. If you want a vase, you can have two colors. Same for flowers. One for the stem and one for the flower. There are predefined color combinations that they have available aside from some basic colors. Some work chemically well with others and some don't. We got there a half hour early and went through our design ideas with one of their staff before we went to the hot shop. We figured out what we wanted to make, what colors they would be, and the order in which we would make them. For example, there were three presents in the bunch so they went first. We knew we would probably be able to make three things each so we each knew what those three would be and what the fourth would be if we had time. Being prepared was probably why we had no problem getting all 8 things made. The instructor is great. Very friendly and VERY helpful. He went through the creation of a flower first to show us the steps. Then you take turns making things. My wife went first and we alternated from there. The instructor will do the rather hard things. He will gather the glass on the rods, if there is actual blowing involved, he will do that due to covid. But you will apply the colors to the glass, heat the glass in the glory hole, help with manipulating the glass to the shape you want, all with the instructor either very close by or with his hands helping you so you won't mess up. At no time was I afraid I would mess something up because he was always close by to lend a hand. Afterall, they want you to have fun and make something you like. We ended up making four flowers and four mini vases. We had four items finished in the first 40 minutes. Again, it helps to know what you want. But that didn't keep our instructor from giving us some ideas about color combinations and what you could do WITH the color in the glass while we were going down the list. We ended up taking his advice multiple times. Anyway, it was a lot of fun and I highly recommend it. read more

The instructors are great and friendly. The price of the classes are reasonable. The one thing I wasn't too crazy about was that the classes have over 20 people in it and if you're at the end of the list, you'll be waiting awhile and the actual lesson only lasted no more than 10 minutes. The one in Fort Worth was a much smaller class of 8 and more of an intimate setting with more one-on-one time and actual hands on time. There are bleachers inside where you can watch if you're not participating. There's a cute dog that stays there that's really friendly. read more

I had to cancel due to feeling sick this morning. They originally said they would not give me credit to use in the future. Several hours later, the manger contacted me and are going to allow me to use the three tickets in January. Couldn't be happier! They made me happier thank they ever knew. Looking forward to going next month! read more

We came for a glassblowing class this Saturday and it was so much fun! Staff was super friendly and there's plenty of beautiful pieces to see as you get checked in and ready to go inside the studio. The classes take place in a large warehouse/garage setting. Our class was at 10a and it was already super hot in there, however, they have large fans and a water cooler to get water whenever you need it. The demonstration was great. You sit on tiered bleachers and the instructors go through the process, tell you more about the crazy hot temperatures of the ovens and answer any of your questions. Then, one at a time you work with an instructor to make your item. We made vases/diffusers. It was awesome and I'd definitely recommend it as an activity and to learn more about this beautiful art form. read more

We came here to celebrate a friends birthday. Everyone had a chance to make a bowl or a flower with two colors of their choosing. It was an absolutely wonderful experience. The staff was thorough in reviewing all the steps involved in making your art peice. They were friendly, comical and even took photos of people offering to text it to them. It was byob so we brought our own food and drinks and had ourselves a party! If you are looking for something new and fun to do in the dfw, I highly recommend this spot! I definitely plan to come back and make something else! read more

What an awesome experience for the whole family from 9-90. Everyone can do this because of the incredible staff that walks you through the entire process. We were able to learn about the process of creating art with glass. And we got to make our own piece of art that will remind us of this experience forever. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. You can't make a mistake. They walk you through everything. We will be back fo sure. read more

All 4 of us had an amazing time making our pumpkins. Thank you to the amazing staff that was working there. You made it that much more enjoyable. read more

My husband and I attended a Saturday group class and we had so much fun! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They interact well with everyone and each person receives their individual attention, assistance and instruction. The classes are kid friendly, BUT probably more for children 12 and older. Obviously, the business probably has an age limit anyway... so that's my opinion. My husband is planning to do private lessons in the Fall. The ovens/kilns are VERY hot (2000 degrees) and so the whole area is hot. Even with large fans blowing, with our Texas heat I'm sure it feels like you're boiling in sweat Overall, AWESOME experience and I can't wait to do this again soon! read more

Such fantastic people. We love it here. It's so wonderful that they have classes for the public and that you can do parties here.

Such a fun experience! I brought my boyfriend for a surprise birthday gift! We made the beer glasses and it was so much fun! The staff made us feel welcome and they taught us so many things. Will definitely be back for more fun! read more

We celebrated a VERY special birthday at the studio and had a FABULOUS time. Honestly, my expectations were clearly exceeded. The staff was both professional and quite entertaining. The crew included two Alex's and a Michael. They did a great job helping all of us but especially gave attention the patriarch and matriarch of the family. Excellent time we will never forget. See you next year! read more

We went to a glass art class for Valentine's Day! The activity itself is a little intimidating simply due to the high heat, but the staff made it possible for newbies and even children to do the activity safely!

We received a Groupon gift certificate to attend a Glass Blowing class at Dallas Glass Art. Upon arrival, we were graciously greeted by the staff and Clay, the instructor, started the class right on time. He was very informative about the process of glass blowing and the creation of decorative glass pieces. We were given the option of making a paperweight or a glass-blown globe, with several glass color choices. We had the best time, selecting our colors and being carefully guided through the creation of a beautiful glass paper weight! Safety was of prime concern because we had to wear protective glasses and we were at all times supervised by Clay, Marta, and Gary, around the extremely hot ovens! Our masterpiece creation will be ready in 5 days (needs to be cured) and we cannot wait to see it! For a very fun and informative time, we highly recommend signing up for the class - it is well worth it! They also do workshops, private parties, and Corporate events & gifts. read more

This place is amazing. The instructors are awesome and you can tell they love what they do. The price is very affordable. A definite place you must go. read more

We had 14 girls for a 10 year old birthday party and EVERYONE at DGA completely outdid themselves.

Excellent glass art designer, whose iconic pieces can be seen around Dallas. The studio is open to classes, though bring plenty of water as it is hot in the work area, or you can cool off in the showroom. read more

We went on a daytime date here and had such a great experience, we're looking forward to going with a few close friends soon. We're also going to book for our own private session to make Christmas presents. The instructor Clay was friendly and fun as well as patient and watchful that we remained safe throughout the entire session. We would definitely recommend this for an occasion or just a fun thing to do any time - we're looking forward to taking my boyfriend's daughter the next time she comes to visit!!! read more

My teenage daughter and I recently spent an afternoon at Dallas Glass Art - I purchased a private lesson for her birthday. She had an amazing experience learning about glass art and making several pieces of her own. Clay, Brittany and Carlyn were super friendly and fun to work with. They each made my daughter feel comfortable, giving her advice on her pieces along the way. If you have a special occasion or just a quiet Saturday, I'd highly recommend a lesson here. You'll leave with incredible art and some really nice memories. read more

Just started glass blowing as a hobby. These guys have helped me tremendously.

We had such a great experience making pumpkins and ornaments. We had 2 adults and 3 kids, ages 11, 8 and 7. The instructors were so friendly and helpful. They explained everything really well and were fantastic with the kids. They seemed to know when to help and when to let the kids do things themselves. As my son said, " I give it a 10 out of 10, I can't wait to come back!" Highly recommend. read more

Our company of 10 people went to Dallas Glass Art and had a private corporate class. We are also using Dallas Glass Art to create our Christmas gifts this year. The staff was incredibly friendly and personable during our session, and we all got the opportunity to make unique pieces that turned out to be incredible! Carlyn has been a pleasure to work with as we have selected the gifts, packaging, etc. The ability for customization is a huge benefit (from engraving on the bottom of the glass pieces to ribbon options for the boxes). Our whole team highly recommends Dallas Glass Art - it was a phenomenal experience!!!! read more
