Hot Glass Classes in Knoxville, TN.

Come find out what the glassblowing is all about!

We will introduce you to the world of hot glass. Learn from an instructor the tools and techniques used in creating handmade glass. Students learn the basics of forming glass tailored to their skill level, from paper weights or goblets.

These are all private lessons with your choice of one or two people. The classes are scheduled based on your availability, allowing you to come in when you like as often as you want.

All glass and tools will be provided. The student will be able to keep all work produced once it has gone through the post production process.
