Do I need to have experience?

You don't need any glass blowing experience. All skill levels are welcome, whether it's your first time giving glass blowing lessons a go, or you have prior experience. The instructor will be sure to tailor the class to best fit your ability.

Can I take my designed piece home at the end of the class?

Due to the heating and cooling characteristics of glass, your creation must be left overnight at the studio, to cool in the oven and set properly. Items may be picked up by students shortly thereafter, and shipping is available (for a fee) for those unable to return to the Brooklyn location.
