Get hands-on to design and make a one-of-a-kind paperweight. Peek behind the curtain into the mystery of glassblowing. Using a range of sculpting and shaping techniques you will create a design out of coloured and clear glass. Create something unique while learning fundamental glass-making skills. With six designs to choose from and seventeen colour options, the combinations are endless!

Learn how to blow and shape glass in our pumpkin workshop. You will have the opportunity to blow to inflate your pumpkin, create ridges, and give your pumpkin its rounded flat shape.
