FIRST IN CLASS
To really dive in and make strides to become a glass worker we offer an educational approach to the learning process, where you learn how to run the torches, kilns, tanks and form a base for your glass knowledge that will take you to the next level and give you the tools you need to progress at your own pace.
Zen Glass Studio has an 22-year history in teaching lampwork/flamework glass to students young and old. If you are looking to start glassblowing, learn to be an independent artist, rent a torch spot and create your own glass pieces, start with our Beginner Class Flameworked Glass, Private one on one instruction in the hotshop, or the 15-week Glassblower Training Program.
Starting in 2002, students from Eckerd College, were brought in for a semester(sometimes 2) and submerged into the glass studio for a program to learn flameworked glass art. Many of our former students are making a good living and creating a life in glass. We now offer this intensive 15 week class to all who are interested in making a go at being a full time glass artist, in a “full immersion”, “holistic” setting geared to a structured, class like learner.
