| - You guys, I'm going to quit my life and become a professional glassblower. Ok, maybe not, but I'm vibe-ing so hard after my class last night, that I feel like I can do anything. The Glass Bubble Project is exceptional. The minute you walk in, you'll be blown away (ha!) by the gorgeous gift shop of hand crafted glass artistry.
But you can do more than shop. Let me tell you, glass blowing is DIFFICULT, but Dan and David (the instructors), are phenomenal humans with so much patience. Me and a small group of my sorority sisters scheduled a time to come make an ornament/orb/wind chime, and they were beyond accommodating to our true beginner status. The process does take a few hours (there were 8 of us), so be prepared to make this a full night. The long night is worth it, because you'll feel so proud and impressed with your own ability to create. I love how Dan kept calling everyone an "artist," and I felt very comfortable with the safety procedures while we blew glass listening to The Beach Boys. If you schedule a time to go, also note that the glass needs 15 hours to settle, so you won't be able to retrieve your creation until the next day.
Oh, also, there's a House pet chicken, Morty, who hangs out with you while you work--so what's not to love? Take the time to visit, shop local art, or schedule a session at this charming gem in Ohio City.
