Glassblowing Classes

Learn how to shape hot molten glass into a three-dimensional object under the guidance of our skilled Teaching Artists. Spin metal pipes and blow to sculpt decorative and functional objects including paperweights, cups, vases and more. Feel the heat of the furnace as art-meets-science in the palm of your hand! Participants must be at least 12 years old.

Our Hot Shop is closing November-January for our move to Teachers Village. All 2026 classes will be held at our new location.

We signed up for the Fired up! Family workshop at GlassRoots and it was so worth it. Our instructors, Trish and Orchid were so friendly, encouraging and patient with the kids. We learned so much and came home with some beautiful pieces that they taught us to make. Thank you!! What an amazing organization!
