PAPERWEIGHT WORKSHOP | $150 | 40 minutes

The techniques required to make a paperweight have been around for thousands of years. In this introductory workshop, you can choose from one of our six designs and include up to three colours to make a piece that’s unique to you.

Paperweights are the first creation every glass artist makes. Making paperweights gives you a hands-on understanding of the way that hot glass can be shaped and manipulated using tools.

The 40-minute workshop starts with an explanation of the tools and equipment we use in the hot shop, followed by a design consultation where you choose which style of paperweight you'd like to make, then you spend about 20 minutes working one-on-one with our glass artist instructor to make your paperweight.

Note: Hot glass needs 16 hours to cool down safely. Your piece will be available to collect from the following day or can be posted to you.

Requirements:

• Must be 14 yrs or older.

• Must be in good physical health and able to move about independently, hear and see well.

• Must wear close-toed shoes, long pants, and a shirt made of natural fibers such as cotton, wool, or linen during the lesson.

• Must book at least a day in advance.
