What a freaking blast! My mom bought this experience on Groupon for us (group of 4) and we had so much fun making the stems of our wine glasses! Austin was patient, super helpful, and did an excellent job not only explaining what we should be doing but also entertaining us. 10/10 would go again.

Super hands on and fun, did not feel controlled or rushed. We had a great time!

Very nice studio.

Great time with a group of 14!

It was an awesome experience. Being that it was my first time I was a little nervous. But luck was on my side because we had Austin helping us and explaining every step of the wonderful process. I was supper happy with my wine glass and so were my friends! Austin rocks !!! Give it a try …. you will not regret this amazing experience ❤️🍷

Great guys, made a memory in glass that will last forever.

Great time!

I Loved it! So much fun 😃

Awesome artists, glass gallery & showcases, and walk-in studio where you can learn some glass working skills and make your very own wineglass! I had a blast!

My husband has told every single person he’s spoken to since we left how amazing it this experience was! Josh, Austin and team make you feel right at home and let you create your very own masterpiece. We highly recommend!

Absolutely incredible experience!!! So perfect for date night or company team building…so much fun!!

If you are looking for something unique and fun to do for a few hours this was a fun experience.

This was on my husband’s bucket list…super cool experience!!! Definitely recommend & will do again!

A great place for a cool weekend activity! We had a blast!!

zen is an amazing place 2 become an artist or just look @ some amazing glass. DAVE & Josh are super skilled and knowledgeable.

Great place. Good atmosphere very helpful

A great experience!! Austin and Josh were great at showing us what we needed to do and helping to make sure our pipes turned out just how we wanted! Highly recommend.

We had a great time! Josh was super helpful. He explained everything and let us have at it. When we needed help he was there and both our projects came out great. Will definitely be back and hope our kids can join us when they visit.

So much fun! We would love to go back!

A great family environment!! Excellent food!! If you looking for great environment and food I would absolutely recommend Zen great restaurant!!

As a person who binge watched “Blown Away” in a day, this was a must. Austin was our instructor and he was amazing. Giving us little pointers and helping when needed. We each made a wine glass. We even had enough extra time to do a pendent. It was as awesome as I could have hoped for!! I would recommend anyone and everyone to this class.

What a great experience! The guys working there were super kind! Highly recommend!!

This is an AWESOME place with AWESOME staff! Josh and the bearded guy really made my first glass blowing experience rewarding and incredibly fun!! It was me and a group of my friends and wow! These guys have real talent and are able to teach a group of newbies the basics of glass art.
This is great place to gain new skills AND have a great time! Make a date at Zen Glass Studio with your loved one, a girls night out, etc.

My sister and I made wine glasses.
All the staff were so welcoming and informative. They made sure we had a good experience and made a successful project.
So much fun!
We definitely plan to come take another workshop! Cheers!

Awesome!!!!
My husband loved it!!!

Loads of great people

Alex was amazing, very patient, very informative and very Zen!!!

Awesome workshop and great instruction. Me and my wife loved it.

Awesome experience! Josh and Austin were great. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.

This place is absolutely amazing! My sister and I had a great time. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the whole process…. Not to mention hilarious! We laughed and shot one liners with Austin the whole time!! He was the coolest and was such a team player. He helped us create beautiful wine glasses, as well as awesome memories. (We made a bird!!) I would recommend this place to anyone!

IT WAS GREAT TIME ! I SURPRISED MY MOM FOR HER BIRTHDAY AND AUSTIN THE INSTRUCTOR WAS SO COOL AND SO HELPFUL ! WILL FOR SURE BE BACK AGAIN AND I THINK I WANNA TAKE THE TRAINING GLASS TO LEARN HOW TO DO THIS ON MY OWN !!

The vibe you get from this place amazing. The people are all so welcoming. Great community and area.

From the moment I set foot in the hot shop I was treated like family and put at ease. Weirdie and Alex are 2 of the coolest human beings and made my wife and I feel like the glass was never unmanageable. My wife uses her wine glass all the time and I gave my pendant to my daughter who adores it.

The experience was so great in fact, I’ve signed up for beginner classes, bought my own gear and plan to keep coming back and doing this as a hobby.

Bring your kids, bring your significant others, bring your parents. Glass is fun to play with and it’s one of those things that’s easy to pick up and hard to put down! Zen Glass Studio is the place to make it happen. I am so glad I found them!

We had such an amazing time at Zen glass studio!! Josh was patient and helpful! We will definitely be back!

Had such a blast! Staff was friendly! Got awesome one-of-a-kind wine glasses out of it!

Super fun!!! The guys were patient with us and very helpful.

Loved it,definitely recommend,they were awesome accommodating all our guests,pieces came out awesome!

Great experience, easy to follow along for first timers. Real “Zen” 🙂 vibe. Good times, thanks again to Josh and the guys!

The class was very interesting, and much harder than I expected! But our teacher was great and assisted us all the way. Definitely would do it again!

An awesome experience for everyone. My family and I loved everything about it. Everyone there was helpful and patient. We recommend to everyone.

Enjoyed making my wine glass stem, was a little nervous at first but David was an awesome instructor. Will be doing another work shop

Just Awesome Thank you to our Teacher Josh my Wife and I Had a Great time.

This was a fantastic experience for my 13 year old. He’s always wanted to try glass blowing and I’m very impressed with this studio. Nice area to sit out back. Would fully recommend this place.

Just attended a wineglass workshop today. Super fun. The whole crew is wonderful and extremely helpful. Don’t be intimidated. They will help as much or as little as you want. Austin was super helpful.
Go! Have fun! And you get to wear goofy eye protection while you’re at at!

I went for the wine glass workshop and had a great time. I was solo so I had Josh’s full attention. I created a glass that I will enjoy for many years to come. I also bought a beautiful necklace for my mom’s birthday.

if there were a way to give Zen glass 100 Stars yeah, that would be my rating. Everybody is very knowledgeable helpful, positive, accommodating, and encouraging. And it’s just so much fun! Love it!

Great gallery of glass art crafted by local artists. Also a great place to learn how to create your own glass art.

Zen glass is an amazing place. My friends and myself went on Saturday and had a blast. Katy and the staff were friendly and very informative. We did the make your own wine glass. Also if you have a chance check out their gallery of work. All of their pieces are simply stunning. I can’t wait to come back.

Very cool shop

We had a wonderful experience! Austin was so helpful and fun to work with! It was truly a fun experience and will definitely come back to make more pieces!

Something fun and unique to do with the Besties ❤️ The owner and the workers are very helpful?

Love these folks!

We had such a great time, I definitely want to come back and do more!

I’ve been taking the beginner glass blowing program for 5 weeks now and have to say is a great place to learn. Josh,Dave, Katie, and Kyle are super knowledgeable. I gotta say if you’ve ever had a interest in learning glass this is the place to go,very reasonably priced and they’re third Thursdays with free open torches front 7 to 11pm are a great way to spark your flame for this superior artform and top notch learning facility.

Fun experience! Patience and encouragement from instructors Dave and Austin. They did a great job. My husband’s quotes: “I thought this would be way more boring” and “that was freakin’ awesome!” Ha! Now we have two new favorite wine glasses and great memories!

Awesome place!! Great teachers!!

Thanks for accomodating our crazy group today! We had a blast and will be back!!

zen is an amzing place 2 become an artist or just look @ some amazing glass . DAVE & Josh are super skilled and knowledgeable .

We had a great knowledgable instructor

Good guys too know in st Pete

Veteran Night hands down always an amazing and relaxing time. Learn something new everytime. Truly thankful for this opportunity.

There was a Groupon offered for a workshop that I took advantage of with my boyfriend. We came in to make a glass pendent. Josh was the artist that worked with us. He was very informative and also allowed for us to have space to work on our pendent. He intervened when he needed to and made the experience enjoyable. I am looking forward to coming back and learning more!

So much fun! My friends and I did a wine glass class and it was great! They let us bring our own food and drinks! 🙂 Definitely going back! Ask for Katy!

Awesome studio!

The instructors are all nice and helpful, loved it would definitely do this again!

The owners are wonderful and love teaching.

So much fun!! And they were so very patient with us. I highly recommend their workshops!

Zen Glass is the BEST! The workshops are really fun with friends or solo. The beginner 9 hour course is awesome if you want to be a hobbyist (of the 15-week for commercial glass artists). Josh, Dave, Austin & Alex are fantastic teachers and talented artists. Highly recommended, the best place to work hot glass!

We had so much fun!!

Beautiful glass work!

We had a great experience at Zen Glass! Josh was friendly and patient with us, talking us through the process. We can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend this as a fun activity, date night, birthday celebration, etc! We had no experience at all and we enjoyed ourselves!

The class was amazing! 10/10 recommend! Great date idea

Had a great and fun experience, very welcoming. We are definitely going again!

awesome work!

Had a fantastic time making my our beer glass. Looking forward to taking classes

My friends and I just took a class on how to make our own wineglass. Austin and Josh were so knowledgeable and patient. If you are looking for new fun way to spend time with yours friends and incorporate your creative side. Checkout Zen Glass Studios and ask for Austin or Josh.

Such a great experience and would highly recommend! We did a wine glass making workshop and had a blast! Thought I’d be intimidated by working with a torch but Austin (one of the artists at the shop and the teacher for our workshop) made us feel super comfortable and made sure we were having fun the entire time! This is great activity for date night or even as a group event. We are most definitely going back! Thanks for the awesome time Austin!!!! 😁❤️

Best family fun experience! Austin and Josh were amazing to work with. Thanks Guys!

We had a great time at the studio! They were patient with us and let us get as creative as we could. Definitely coming back!

My wife and I used a groupon there. The instructor was awesome and he helped us create our wine glasses. The shop was great and he gave us a tour of their show room. I would definitely recommend it.

Took a chance on a Groupon for our first visit. Enjoyed it so much we went back a second time. Staff/instructors were really attentive. A fun experience. Highly recommend.

Place is simply awesome! Great people over there!!

My kids had lost their father a couple of years back. Josh at Zen Glass made a wonderful collection of custom glass figurines, incorporating their dad’s ashes. He was careful to send updates and make sure they were exactly as I wanted through the whole process. Josh is an amazing artist.

Thank you Austin!! We really had fun today!!

We had a great time today making our own martini glasses. The owners were friendly and very knowledgeable, so the whole experience was a lot of fun.

My wife and I had an amazing time we highly suggest everyone try it.

This was such a GOOD time! Josh was a great instructor and was very supportive of the non-descript blobs that were made! After all, we ended up with cool wine glasses, tree ornaments, paperweight and an awesome charm…Thank you Zen Glass, we WILL be back!

zen is an amzing place 2 become an ar7is7 or jus look @ some amazing glass . DAVE @ Josh are super skilled and knowledgable .

Absolutely wonderful place to see and try something new! Our family of four had a great experience and would do it again in a heartbeat!

We will see you the next time we’re in Florida!

Very fun experience. Definitely makes you appreciate the custom glassware you see.

This was very fun!! Loved everything about the experience!! Alex was incredible!! Would love to do it again!

I did the “Make your own wine glass” class with a friend and it was so much fun! They give great instructions to get you started and help you out along the way. I will definitely be back for more.

Best glass studio in Florida

Met some cool people at the show in Miami got the big coin from Josh aka Jash. And what a good bunch of salesman Zen had there. Makes me want to learn how to blow glass. Thanks, Josh and Zen btw thanks Jb and thank your girlfriend for the lil cupcake

We had an absolute blast! Austin was an incredible teacher so much so we went back for a second class to drive him nuts. We made several gorgeous pieces and no one got burned. Thanks again Austin you’re “AWSOME Austin!”
Wes, Jasmine, Jill

Austin was a very good teacher and funny. Had a fun and great experience and going to go back to make some more works of art.

Hard working vision within the craft of art. And dedicated to the community.

What a blast. My wife and I booked an hour appointment and it was quite a fun learning experience. We both made wine glasses. The shop was really cool and the staff were awesome. We can’t wait to do it again. Don’t miss out on this fun experience.

I spent a few minutes with Josh telling him my background and what I wanted to get from the class. He took me through a few ‘basics’ and I was off and running. Fantastic experience and I look forward to coming back the next time I’m in town.

Josh Poll & David Walker did such an awesome job in honoring my brother! Had some beautiful pendants & a pocket piece made with cremations & some outstanding paper weights too. Can’t put into words what it feels like to have & only know I have felt a definite peace.

We did the make your own wineglass class. So fun!

Amazing people who do amazing work! I couldn’t be happier with them and the custom products that were made for us. I recommend them to everyone and already have a few friends who will be contacting them very soon for such exceptional work! Thanks Kelton and Billy you are both so amazing!

We had a great experience here making some wine glasses.

My cousin Josh is amazing at glass work. Definitely hit him up! 🙂

What an awesome place, with a super low key, but awesome time!

Beautiful art work, and an extremely interesting process to get there. Highly recommend!

Fun experience, would def do again!

Lot of fun, ended up with a Groupon deal so it was about $60 a person for the wine glass class. Lasts an hour, unique experience

My friend and I attended a class today. We had such a great time. David was an excellent teacher. He was very personable and made it so fun! We will definitely be back!

Great fun place to learn about working with glass

David is a great designer and glass artisan! He created and installed a wall of glass in out home down in Venice. Such s nice guy, it is a pleasure to do business with Zen Glass Studio. Highly reccomend.

My daughter had the BEST time during the 1 hour pendant making session! Austin was a fantastic teacher – very patient, encouraging and helpful. They have a gift shop if you’re looking for a unique gift. They have all the COVID safety measures in place, too. It’s a 2+ hour drive for us but very worth it and we’ll be back!

Such an awesome place

Quite an Artsy area! The instructor (Austin) was awesome. Had a few works on display and making a wine glass was such a learning experience!

To say Zen Glass and it’s crew are great is a disservice to them. You can feel and see the passion they have for this as soon as you get there. Austin, who was teaching/showing my wife and I how to do everything was amazing. The gallery and store are amazing. The talent to make the things they make with glass is insane. My wife and I can’t wait to come back to try something else. Even our son asked if he could take a class with us next time. The experience was unforgettable.

What a blast!! Have fun and get creative this was worth every penny. We will be back for other classes. Great atmosphere and in a funky neighborhood 😁👍

Tons of fun
