THE HEAT—TO ABOUT 2300 DEGREES!
Get an up close experience with the process of glassblowing at the Hot Shop.
Housed in an outdoor glassblowing pavilion, the Hot Shop features daily demonstrations by local professional gaffers – master glass blowers – as they gather molten glass and transform it into a finished piece of blown glass artwork. Every step of the process is described in informative 25-minute sessions.
Glass pieces produced in the Hot Shop are available for sale at Botanica, and the Hot Shop is available for special event rental.
