I booked this Dabble class for myself and my partner. Our teacher, Chiontea, was very knowledgeable and passionate about her craft. Chiontea made this experience accessible and took time to tell us about the process and how the glass interacted with the heat. My partner and I had a very enjoyable experience and I hope to take another class with Chiontea at Firebird Community Arts soon!
