Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this glass blowing class:

Join us for an introduction to the UrbanGlass hotshop! This fast-paced class will give you a thorough understanding of the glass studio, while working toward making your very own small, colorful, solid paperweight.

What to Expect: Students will work together and learn to manipulate molten glass (2000 degrees). Safety, color application, and tools will all be covered in a fun and exciting environment. The hot shop is a loud studio, and can get quite warm.

Eligibility: No previous experience required. Open to ages 14 and up.

Pick-up: The glass needs to cool down overnight so the students will have to return to the school once notified to pick up their work made on the second day of this class.

This is an in-person class taking place on-site at our school. Health and safety guidelines will be emailed to you upon registration.
