What you can expect to learn. The goal of this course is to give students a general understanding of beginner glassblowing techniques and forms. The curriculum is broken into two 3 week blocks. The first three weeks will focus on studio safety, gathering glass, heating, shaping, and cooling glass, and basic solid forms like paperweights and flowers. The second three weeks will be dedicated to blown glass techniques. We will learn how to start a bubble, how to apply color, basic blown forms like cylinders and bowls, and how to work with a team.
