Classes

Open Studio

Open Studio is available to individuals who have completed at least three formal Glass Studio classes and are comfortable working independently. Art Activity Days do not qualify toward this requirement.

Participants receive a brief check-in with a studio staff member before working independently for up to 2.5 hours. Projects are priced by size and ready for pickup in 2–3 weeks.

A non-refundable $10 deposit reserves your spot. Participants arriving more than 5 minutes late forfeit both their session and deposit. Beginning in July, the deposit will no longer be applied toward the final project cost.

Member discounts apply to artwork pricing but not the deposit. Payment for completed artwork is due at pickup.

Participants may register for a maximum of two Open Studio sessions at a time.
