The Main Event
Discover the dynamic world of glassblowing with this intensive master class designed for a group of 6 or a group of 7 to 10 people.
Whether you're planning a family get-together, a hen party, a stag do, or a corporate team-building event, this glassblowing workshop promises an immersive experience into the captivating world of glass artistry.
No prior experience is needed, you can be a complete beginner, with the masterclass tailored to suit the needs of your group.
This all-inclusive workshop has everything you need to make the most of this enjoyable learning experience. You can access an array of glass colours containing many metals and minerals activated by fire! Under the guidance of experienced glassblowing artists, you'll gain practical skills in manipulating molten glass and the freedom to experiment with various techniques to create stunning glassware ornaments and art pieces.
Immerse yourself in the mesmerising process of heating molten glass in an 1100-degree furnace, using historical hand-forged tools to gather and shape your glass, and finally, breathe life into your creations by blowing and forming them. There'll be step-by-step demonstrations with hands-on guidance, so each group member can try their hand at glassblowing.
The end result? A collection of unique glass pieces, ranging from colourful paperweights, inverted bubble bowls, and a choice of coloured ombré vases - or your own personalised drinking glass.
You'll leave the workshop with your fabulous glass creation to display with pride, a souvenir of an amazing day spent with friends or family.

How many glass items you'll be able to make:
