What's the difference between our mini-workshops & glassblowing classes?
Q. What's the difference between our mini-workshops & glassblowing classes?
In our mini-workshops we handle the advanced steps and let you do the fun part, ending up with a finished product in about 15 min. We created mini-workshops for people of all ages to try glassblowing first hand. You get to take home your project & the experience of working in a glassblowing studio.
For those that want a true glassblowing lesson we offer intensive 6 hr classes where you learn the fundamentals by practicing every step in small groups. These are instructive classes, they’re not meant to produce perfect finished pieces like our mini-workshops do (it’s harder than it looks!). Regardless, you’ll be very proud of what you make.

Q. Can I take a glassblowing class in summer?
No, sorry. We want you to have fun, not pass out. Standing in front of a 2,200 degree furnace during Baltimore’s summer heat is not tolerable to most beginners. Trust us! Our classes are worth the wait so plan on trying glassblowing during the more comfortable months.Can you repair my broken glass?
Q. Can you repair my broken glass?
No, we do not do any repairs. If you have something like a lamp shade that broke (no stained glass) we can possibly make you a new one if you send us pictures w/dimensions. Do not bring anything in without us confirming.Can we pop in during your workday and watch you work?
Q. Can we pop in during your workday and watch you work?
You may watch from our upper gallery. Please respect our need to focus and do not distract or ask the glassblowers questions. Remember it’s our place of work, we’re not here for show. There’s no guarantee we’ll be blowing glass; we could be eating lunch, grinding glass in the back room or sweeping up. If you would like to enter our studio level, a 1 hr private glassblowing demo w/Q&A is available to book for $250. for up to 25 people. Of course if you’re here to purchase something we’ll break & help you.Can I take pictures of you working?
