DIY Fused Glass Open Studio

Join us for a fun and creative DIY Fused Glass Open Studio. For this "Do-It-Yourself" Open Studio, you choose your project: Nighlight, Suncatcher, Bowl... Bring your ideas to the open studio where you will be guided on the creation of your unique project using varied glass tools and techniques.

An excellent choice for curious beginners who wish to explore fused glass possiblities, this studio is also open to advanced participants who have a unique project in mind. Secure your space to join our active community of fused glass enthusiasts!

No experience needed, just get ready for fun and to learn something new! Experienced instructors will guide you through the creative process, help you select the perfect glass pieces, and provide instruction, tips, tools, and techniques to bring your ideas to life. We provide a sample project, but the choices are many as you infuse the project with your own ideas - colors, shapes, sizes!

Our glass classes offer terrific hands-on opportunities to explore the world of glass fusion, learn new skills, and become aware of endless possibilities in creating your own personal one-of-a-kind designs. Class projects make perfect keepsakes and unique gifts that only YOU could make. No two are alike!

We look forward to seeing you in our happy place as you explore the possibilities!
