This gallery offers glass blowing classes. The class that we did was one hour long. The employees walk you through the process and do some of the finishing parts for you, but it is still an active participation experience. They offered many different choice colors and did a demonstration. Projects do have a cost and you can register and pay online at their website. Projects also need 24 hours to cool slowly in the kiln, so you will need to go back at a later time to pick up the finished work of art. The gallery is flexible on pick up times and will arrange shipment if needed. The gallery itself has many beautiful pieces of art for sale and displayed.
