Lampwork Glassblowing: Hollow-Form Ornaments

Glassblowing usually means a furnace and a very large room. This is the tabletop version, and it is far more approachable than it sounds.

Working with a torch and small glass tubing, students learn to heat, shape and gently inflate hollow forms into ornaments. The instructor takes you through the fundamentals of torch work first, and beginners are the intended audience rather than a tolerated one.

Good to know. $155 for the session, in the Glass Studio at 273 Whisconier Road. Prices and openings change, so check the registration page before you plan around it.
