Pittsburgh Glass Center

Working with borosilicate glass in this 8-week class, you will learn how to make tiny worlds inside spheres of borosilicate glass. Each week you will learn new design techniques while honing your basic flameworking skills and getting ever closer to the elusive perfect sphere. Things that you'll learn along the way might include pulling clear or color encasement, implosions, dot stacks, heat control and more. This class is intended for beginners or intermediate flameworkers. Join us to advance your technical skills, consider new forms and designs, and hopefully make some friends along the way. No experience necessary.

Class tuition includes 2 hours of open-studio time to be used during the 8-week course period. Open studio is held on Monday nights from 5:00pm - 9:00pm.

Ages 14+ Class does not meet the week of March 7 through 13, 2027.
