Half-day Glassblowing Tuition Voucher
Tax excluded. Shipping calculated at checkout
Over an intensive three-hour period you will discover the potential of this unique material. You will work closely with your tutor who will guide you through many of the fundamental processes involved in glassblowing. This tuition is very hands-on and will teach you how to gather hot glass from the furnace, then blow, shape and add colour to it. You should produce some basic forms such as baubles, paperweights, and possibly simple vessels such as tumblers.
This is a much more hands-on experience than our shorter experiences workshops, in which many of the more challenging processes are completed by your tutor. It is ideal for anyone who wishes to gain a more detailed appreciation of the craft. It may be purchased for yourself, or given as a gift, to make an unique, fun and memorable present.
This is NOT group tuition as offered by many places, but dedicated one-to-one tuition, ensuring you maximise the learning opportunities and develop your skills as quickly as possible.
Who is it for?
This stimulating experience is for those looking for a proper introduction to the principles and processes of glassblowing and who want to craft some unique and beautiful objects for their home, or to give as gifts. Due to the hands-on nature of this option, the minimum age is 16 years. You do not need any prior experience to take part in this session.
How to book
Demand for in-depth tuition into glassblowing is less predictable than for short experiences. Therefore we schedule dates for these with you directly once you have purchased the voucher via this page. Although we will do our very best, we cannot always guarantee your first choice of date, so we advise you contact us as early as possible if you have a specific date in mind. The voucher is valid for one year from date of purchase. All enquiries and questions should be directed to shop@cumbriacrystal.com
