The basic shapes of cups allow you to familiarize yourself with the whole technique of blowing glass from start to finish. Throughout each course you will also learn a little bit of the fascinating history of blowing glass. The tools we use have hardly changed in 1000 years along with the process of melting color, rolling the glass on a marver (metal table) to shape, and of course blowing the glass up! There is nothing like it! 

Class Description: To start off I will be demonstrating how to make one so we are all on the same page! You will be provided an option of 2-3 colors to mix as well as assistance in choosing the color pattern you would like to capture within your cup. Then you will be expertly guided through all the steps. This is a very hands on process! I am well-versed in teaching of people of all ages and abilities so I can make adjustments on the fly to make experience more suitable for you! Let the fun begin!

GUIDELINES

  1. Please arrive 15-20 minutes before to your scheduled class. A fee will be charged for late arrivals. 
  2. Minimum 4 people per class. Individual bookings will be combined to meet the minimum requirement. Exceptions can be made if combining multiple classes to create a private workshop. 
  3. Each group class will be making the same piece. This helps with the overall rhythm of the workshop because I will be demonstrating what you are making at the beginning of the session, so its good we are all on the same page!
  4. Everyone must sign a waiver. Glassblowing can be dangerous but trust in us to keep you safe, we've been doing this a long time!
  5. A 50% deposit is required to hold your spot in the calendar and if you decide to cancel you must do it at least 7 days in advance or you lose your deposit. This is a very time sensitive and expensive art so ample time for us to fill our schedule is a top priority. 
  6. Please acknowledge any special requirements upon scheduling so we can make the proper arrangements to give everyone a great and safe time. An extra glass artist may be needed to help.
  7. Everyone must wear closed-toe shoes. NO SANDALS. Save those toes for the beach!
  8. Finished work will be available for pick up after 48 hours.
  9. Let's have some fun!

 Lastly

Blowing glass is a fascinating medium. It's a material that you can never truly touch with your hands. It takes specialized tools that are centuries old in design. Nothing feels more amazing than grabbing molten glass with a large pair of tweezers and stretching it out. It is truly a bizarre and fascinating world to experience!

We can't wait to share our space and time with you!
