| - A great little art studio/glass studio/blacksmithery in Larchmere neighborhood. They have different art (glass, textile, metal) in the shop, but the fun part are the hands-on classes. They periodically have group classes for things like glassblowing, solid glass work, and blacksmithing. They also do custom group classes in demand. I first came here for a Yelp Elite event and had so much fun that I came back for another class with friends!
Light refreshments (wine, soda, pizza) were provided. They gave a demo first, then helped each of us to individually craft our piece. They are very good about safety and making sure we didn't botch our art too badly. It can go a little slowly if there is a large group and you need to wait your turn, but it helped to have refreshments and the shop to browse in. My friends and I had a great time and want to go back again!
Note: pieces may need to anneal/cool so have to be picked up a day or so later. Also, the furnace shuts down in the summer (July/Aug), so plan accordingly.
