Refine your control and build confidence in the flame in this focused, hands-on borosilicate workshop. This class is all about developing steady hands, understanding heat control, and mastering smooth, intentional rotation—essential skills for shaping glass with precision. Students will begin by creating vibrant, solid marbles, learning how to evenly heat and shape the glass. From there, you’ll transform those forms by stretching and twisting them into elegant icicles, discovering how subtle changes in heat and movement can dramatically alter the final design. Along the way, you’ll also learn techniques for adding pendant loops, giving you the option to turn your creations into wearable or hangable pieces. This class blends technical skill-building with creativity, resulting in beautiful, functional glass art.

Step into the world of sculptural glass in this hands-on workshop focused on borosilicate—an incredibly durable and dynamic material. Students will explore how this type of glass behaves in the flame, learning how it moves, stretches, and holds form as it’s shaped.
Using these skills, you’ll create your own miniature glass tree, a project designed to build control and confidence while working with this more complex material. Along the way, you’ll practice shaping techniques, learn how to balance and stabilize your piece so it stands on its own, and experiment with form and flow.
This class blends skill-building with creativity, giving you the chance to explore the possibilities of borosilicate glass while crafting a one-of-a-kind piece to take home.
Safety &amp; What to Expect
This class will be held at our HyArts Campus Flamework Studio
Working with borosilicate glass involves higher temperatures and focused flame work, so safety is essential. All participants must wear 100% cotton or linen clothing (no synthetic fabrics), along with closed-toe shoes. Long hair must be tied back securely before class.
As with all glasswork, your finished tree will need to cool slowly in a kiln overnight to ensure strength and durability. Your completed piece will be ready for pickup the following day.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/148116/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp;&nbsp;More&nbsp;Info</a>

Take your flameworking further in this intermediate borosilicate class focused on complex shaping, controlled gathers, and multi-part construction. Students will explore how the way glass is gathered and applied can create structure and detail—forming elements like muscles, joints, spikes, and claws with intention and control.
This class introduces more advanced sculptural building techniques, including working both directly on the torch and assembling separate components using punties and kiln-assisted joins. You’ll learn how to safely move between the kiln and torch, how to manage heat for different stages of construction, and how to combine multiple parts into a single cohesive sculpture.
Students will also be introduced to reduction flames and how flame chemistry affects surface, color, and finish—adding another layer of depth to their work.
This is a hands-on, problem-solving class designed to expand your technical skills while pushing your sculptural glass work into more dynamic, expressive forms.
Safety &amp; What to Expect This class is held at our HyArts Campus Flamework Studio
Working with borosilicate glass involves high temperatures, open flame, and advanced handling techniques. All participants must wear 100% cotton or linen clothing (no synthetic fabrics), along with closed-toe shoes. Long hair must be tied back securely before class.
Protective eyewear will be provided and may be required at certain stages of the class due to increased complexity of flame work and glowing glass handling.
All finished components must be properly kiln-annealed overnight to ensure strength and durability. Completed work will be available for pickup the following day.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/148109/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets</a> &amp; More Info

Create delicate, sculptural blooms in this hands-on borosilicate workshop focused on repetition, control, and thoughtful assembly. Students will learn how to shape and refine individual petals, practicing consistency and intentional movement to achieve balanced, cohesive forms.
You’ll explore how glass responds to heat as you flatten, shape, and refine each element, then discover the techniques for bringing those pieces together—carefully reheating and assembling them into a complete flower. The process culminates in pulling and shaping a graceful, twisty stem, adding movement and personality to your finished piece.
This class blends precision with creativity, giving you the skills to build a beautiful glass flower while gaining confidence working with borosilicate.

Explore the art of transfer decoration in this creative porcelain workshop. Guests will work on a porcelain surface, selecting from a variety of transfer designs to build their own unique composition. You’ll experiment with placement and layering as you arrange the imagery to create a personalized piece. Once your design is complete, the piece will be kiln-fired to permanently fuse the transfers to the porcelain surface, resulting in a finished piece that is both decorative and functional. No prior experience is needed—just come ready to experiment and design. Please note that pieces must be picked up approximately two weeks after the classto allow time for kiln firing. This is the class registration fee which includes the instruction and transfer supplies. Ceramic pieces will be purchased separately during class and may range from $20-$50 each.

Explore a new approach to borosilicate construction in this intermediate class focused on precision, consistency, and modular building. Students will learn the importance of strong, clean hot joints and controlled fusing techniques, discovering how small, delicate glass elements can be combined to create larger, structurally sound works—without needing to keep the entire piece constantly heated on the torch.
This class emphasizes control and repetition as you practice forming smooth, consistent glass circles and connecting them into unified chain links. You’ll learn how to plan and assemble components efficiently, building strength through technique rather than size, and gaining confidence in working with multiple connected elements.
By the end of class, you’ll understand how modular borosilicate construction can open the door to larger, more complex sculptural possibilities.
