During this 3-Hour private beginner workshop, you will experience a preview on the art of Venetian Glassblowing.
This unique hands-on workshop will allow you to both learn how to use a variety of tools and equipment for furnace work glassblowing. As well as techniques like how to blow a bubble through a hot stainless steel pipe. With these tactics I will guide you through the processes of making a beautiful piece of artwork. We will start out making an ornament and move on to making a small drinking glass!

IMPORTANT INFO
Once you purchase the workshop, next step will be to book your date! You will receive a confirmation email with a link to my online calendar for scheduling! Workshops tend to fill up quickly. We ask for you to kindly book your workshop within 3 months of purchase!
When finished making your work, the glasswork has to sit in a hot oven overnight and slowly cool down to prevent cracking. Your pieces will be ready for pick-up within a week of the workshop.

COVID-19 Vaccination Policy
Wearing our masks during the workshop is optional at this time. It is to your comfort ability. Thank you!
So, in the meantime, I am able to host 10-15 people group events at my home studio and small workshops are held Saturday mornings. Weather permitting of course because they are held outside. We will be under a canopy. This will provide shade from sunlight and shelter from the rain/wind. Schedule changes will apply according to weather. If you are a night owl. I will be holding my workshops in the evenings at a community glassblowing studio in Vancouver, WA.
In the future, once I am completely mobile; meaning once I have a truck and trailer, I will be able to the take the glass workshops and private events to your space of choosing. I will be able to host large events and small workshops in peoples driveways, at public school events, courtyards, festivals, outside markets, breweries, wineries, wedding event spaces. You name it!
Please stay tuned in. I will be starting a crowd funding campaign in September where you will have a chance to help me become a fully mobile glassblowing studio!! There will rewards and fun things honored in your name if you help back my endeavor to become a mobile glass shop!
Thanks so much for reading and have a relaxing Saturday folks! Much love.
