Description:
An opportunity to assist in the design and creation of
your own glass float or ornament at Glass Quest studio. You will get to be creative and choose your own
colors and style, then assist Mark or Marcus with the melting in of those
colors. Stand in front of the 2300
degree ‘Glory Hole’ and experience the feel and sound of molten glass. A great
chance to “get your feet wet” and gain understanding into the century’s old art
form that is glassblowing. Mark and
Marcus will introduce you to the studio equipment, the chemistry of glass and
walk you through making your own float or ornament. Make a lasting memory for yourself or a
group!
