Can’t make it to GlassRoots? We’ll bring the magic, science and excitement of hot glass to you!
GlassRoots can come to you with our Hot Glass Road Show: a mobile glassblowing studio. Our talented glassblowers will demonstrate the art of shaping molten glass into functional and artistic glass pieces. This educational and entertaining experience will expose a large group to the wonder and power of glass in transformation!
GlassRoots can provide this experience at schools, festivals, public events, or parties.
