Create glass explosions of color.

Guided demonstrations will teach you the compression technique, while providing hand-on support to help you shape several stunning pieces. You will gain a solid foundation in studio safety, torch operation, essential sculpting techniques, and experience the joy of working with molten glass.

Come ready to let your imagination explode in glass.
