SUMMARY:Glassblowing Workshop: Sculpt A Tree
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, students will have the opportunity to sculpt a fir tree from hot glass. \n\nStudents will receive an orientation to the Glassworks Studio\, receive safety information\, and an introduction to basic tools used for hot glass sculpting and glassblowing. Each student will then work with a skilled instructor to select colors\, gather glass on a rod\, and sculpt a tree. Working with hot glass requires teamwork. Students will learn how to be a good assistant\, and help each other throughout the process. \n\nFinished pieces will need to cool slowly overnight before they are ready to take home. Students may pick up their work in the afternoon following a class at the Waterfall Arts reception desk on the main floor outside of the gallery. Arrangements can be made to have pieces shipped for an additional fee. \n\nNo previous experience working with hot glass is needed! More experienced students are welcome.
