I came here with my husband and son a while back for an Introduction to Glass Blowing class. There were a handful of other people there and we all had the opportunity to make our own item to bring home. We were able to choose the colors we wanted and lay them on the table. The instructor gathered some glass and did the initial shaping while explaining what he was doing and allowed each student to add their colors. We were able to reheat the glass in the glory hole under supervision and they assisted us in shaping. They were very hands on and did some of the more difficult things for you but definitely allowed you to try before taking over if necessary. We learned a lot and we had a good time. It is a very expensive experience but it definitely has value. You leave with knowledge, experience and a nice keepsake. I think a class here would make a great gift for someone or a fun activity to do with a friend or on a date and I would definitely come back here, especially if someone else was footing the bill! read more
