Make-It-Now…NOW
Walk in and try glassmaking every Saturday, and Sunday from 10:00am-4:30 PM at Pittsburgh Glass Center.
In 20 minutes or less you’ll make a paperweight or a blown glass ornament with help from our artists for $55. No experience is required. This is a quick opportunity to get a taste of the glassmaking experience with lots of assistance. Ages 5+ with an adult are welcome to participate.
Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and can only be done in person at the front desk. For best availability please arrive early, as space is limited and seats often sell out quickly! Space is limited to 6 seats per hour.
We also offer many activities where you can have a more hands on experience and you can register ahead to guarantee a spot! See the list of upcoming activities.
Be sure to check the calendar for a few special dates that PGC will be closed to the public.
Due to the nature of hot glass, items must cool first and can be picked up 5 days later. Shipping may be arranged for an additional fee.
