Intermediate Glassblowing - Intro to Goblets

March 14th - April 18th
Alex Demmerle |

This class is intended for intermediate level students with a basic foundational knowledge of glassblowing. In this class we will explore blowing thin glass efficiently, and assembling cups, stems and blown feet. The structure of the course will involve a daily demo followed by intensive work time for students to practice the techniques required to compose forms from multiple parts. 

What to Expect: Students will work in teams and learn how to move safely but efficiently through the studio bringing bits and assembling cups. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page. 

Eligibility: Previous glassblowing experience required. You should have 1-2 years of experience, and feel comfortable gathering and moving through the steps of making a basic cup. Don’t feel ready yet? Check out our more introductory classes to build your skills. Open to ages 14 and up.

Pick-up: You can expect to bring some work to fruition during class that can be taken home at the end of the week. If anything is made on the last day of class, students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work. 

This is an in-person class taking place on-site at UrbanGlass. Health and safety guidelines will be emailed to you upon registration.
