This one day glass making course is a great hands-on introduction to glass making in a working glass studio located in Buckinghamshire. There are just two students on each course, making this an intensely practical and fascinating day. Our glass studio boasts state of the art glass making equipment and the expertise of a master glass maker. This full day course will offer all you need for an exhilarating and unusual experience.
You will be guided through the basics of working with hot glass and will become familiar with the tools and equipment. You will move quickly onto gathering glass from the furnace, shaping it and applying colour. These new glass making skills will enable you to make a piece such as a paper weight, under the tutors guidance.
Later on in the day, you will also get the chance to try glass blowing. No experience is needed, just curiosity and enthusiasm!
