Join ArtReach glass artists in the hotshop at Firehouse Art Studio as they give an introduction to blowing glass. With fall as our inspiration and glass pumpkins as our final product, students will learn, among other lessons and insights: how to safely collect molten glass from a 2000 degree furnace; how to use tools like the marver, block and tweezers to shape your piece; and the art of adding color to make your pumpkin vibrant!

If you would like to work with a friend, you can do so for a $20 surcharge. Please message us below using the "Message Teacher" button once logged into your Dabble account.
