Create Your Own Murano Glass: Beginner’s Glassblowing Class

You will experience nothing like this in Murano. This is the only place where you can experience such an amazing class along with glass masters working on a real furnace. No demonstration, just real a real hotshop!

Be aware this experience is not for everyone! Glassblowing is a physically demanding craft involving extreme heat and hands-on work with molten glass at over 1100°C. If you are looking for a simple demonstration or guided tour, this may not be the right activity for you. However, if you are ready for an authentic and intense glassblowing experience, this is an unforgettable opportunity. The workshop includes an intro to the tools and techniques of Murano glassmaking, practical exercises with hot glass, and the chance to create your own glass object under the guidance of a glassblower.
