Blown pumpkin season FOREVER! Blown Pumpkins...on the real!

First TIME EVER! Blown Pumpkins...on the real!

YOU ARE DOING IT! We are coaches and instructors.

These are not easy. There are many steps, tool changes, and quick repositioning!!

GAI gets you through blowing your own blown pumpkin. Lots of steps...good for you to try.

YOU DO IT! Pumpkins are most challenging of all of our hands on sessions. Be ready to follow quick detailed instructions...quickly. Yours may be more squash-like.

Be accepting of what you create: You stepped up to the challenge.

Making blown pumpkins does have physical requirements. For example, up and out of the bench a number of times. Stepping up and back down a set of small stairs with a blow hose, being up close on the hot surface like few others of our sessions for a longer period of time, etc. Exactly, hold the tools as directed for proper use.

No other glassblowing studio has you do as much of the real process as Glass Arts Indiana. Might as well sign up here for the truest experience, to value the whole process more.

These are the stem options shown here. No other stem styles will be considered.

GAI has a great color selection and, like all of our sessions, you may select speckled or twisty. Anything else...are commissions!

These are NOT COMMISSIONS! Do the best you can. GAI does do commission work, but not in these hands-on sessions.Talk to us if you do want to have commission work created for you.

Your glass creation will be ready for pickup the following business day. 12noon to close. Tue-Sun. That is our GAI commitment to you. No calls and emails are necessary.
