Pittsburgh Glass Center

Show off your team spirit. In this introductory workshop, you’ll design a custom glass dish and matching coasters inspired by your favorite sports team. Under guidance of a skilled instructor, learn to cut colorful sheet glass and use frit (colored glass granules) and stringers (thin glass rods) to build your design. Then we’ll fire it in the kiln to fuse all the pieces together. The result is a coordinated set that’s both functional and eye-catching, perfect for game day snacks, drinks, or as a one-of-a-kind gift for any sports fan. Let your creativity lead your design. In this unique mashed up workshop, you can make a combination of dishes and coasters in the allotted time. Example sets might include two dishes, one dish and two coasters, or a set of four coasters.
