Robbinsdale Area Schools Community Education is excited to partner with Skylab Glass Arts, a glassblowing studio located at 8838 7th Ave N in Golden Valley. The studio is kept on the chillier side, so please dress in layers, keep your hair pulled back, with no loose fitting clothes, or open toe shoes. Beginner GlassblowingThis class series will dive into glass art techniques, progressing each week into a more technical shaping style. Beginning with safety on the torch and around the glass, transitioning into working on solid shaped objects and marbles, students will then move onto more unique, creative designs in the later classes. This is an excellent introduction to the art of glassblowing. Participants will keep their creations made in class.“This class was a fun, informative, just the right length per night. The instructors were knowledgeable not only in glass but in the history behind it. They engaged each individual and were helpful.” - Participant, Fall 2018
