Glass-Blowing Classes

We offer various classes to suit your needs, from beading classes to private glass-blowing instruction. We also offer a program that is accredited through Renton Technical College. Sign up for a class today!

Blow-Your-Own Glass
As our most popular activity, this is the first step in the process of enjoying Glass, both as an art form as well as a unique experience. No experience needed, and you come away with a beautiful piece of hand-blown glass! Groups of 6 or more can make an appointment any time, and groups of 1 to 5 will join one of the BYO events we already have on the calendar. (Booking a smaller party just requires a little more flexibility on your part, but we can usually get you in right away!)

A deposit is required at the time of the booking to reserve your space. Please decide on the BYO item at the time of booking. Thank You!

Hot Shots
3 Hour Session, $99
In this 3-hour session, you and 2 other students will work with a professional glassblower who will guide you on a journey of discovery. Learn about the medium of glass, as you gather heat and shape soft glass to create your own glass paperweight. This course will give you a great foundational knowledge of the Hot Shop… and help you decide whether you want to continue with private instruction, or coursework at Renton Technical College.

Hot Shots 101
2 Hour Session, $130
Learn the fundamentals of glass and the Hot Shop environment. The Hot Shots 101 program is an individually tailored 2-hour class for 1 to 2 people. Like Hot Shots, you will gather heat, then shape and create your own paperweight. More...


Bead Me
3 Hour Session, $59
If you prefer to become a glass artist without the intense heat, lampworking (a.k.a. torch working) may be more to your liking. You and up to 6 other students (we have a waiting list, or you can bring your own friends) can learn the basics of torch working and bead making. A professional glass artist will guide you through the process of sculpting glass, and you will come away with a handful of beads you have created! More...


Beading / Assemblage
2 Hour Session, $35
Learn the art of putting it all together! Whether you use the beads you have just made, bring beads in with you, or purchase ours, we can show you the art of putting them all together to make a beautiful piece of art you can wear for years to come! Session includes either the findings to make a necklace, or earrings. To make both, an additional $5 fee applies. (Minimum of 4 students per class) More...
