“I have been captivated and mesmerised by the power of fire and the fragility and beauty of glass my whole life. This was the perfect way to experience and explore them with a master of the art. Mark was wonderful sharing his skill and knowledge with us while encouraging us to be creative and courageous - working with the flame and led by the glass to find out what it wanted to be. 107 is such a welcoming, comfortable venue and the small group environment allowed us to be open and brave. Mark is a wonderful host, providing everything we needed including gorgeous glass, tea, advice, and great conversation. I can’t recommend this highly enough for a chance to relax, learn, play and connect with some of the most fundamental elements on earth. Thank you so much.”
“I loved this class. A really unique activity & experience. The teacher, Mark Eliott, is a very talented glass artist & a wonderful teacher who made the class interesting, fun & relaxed. I was thrilled to go home with a couple of funky glass creations.”
“This class was amazing and we had such a talented teacher that was fully accommodating. I felt safe and encouraged when working with the materials. The other students were all super lovely and I would love to visit again to work on my skills, as well as view the personal works from our teacher. Excellent teacher, class and experience. And tea, sparkling water and biccies were provided to us!”
“Awesome introductory class - Mark’s a great instructor: friendly, knowledgeable and created an inclusive atmosphere for trying our glass working/blowing. I’m only a short time we made some glassworks that are really special to us. We had an amazing time and would highly recommend!”
“Lots of fun and a perfect amount of time to get a taste of glass blowing. Mark went through a lot in the session and it was really cool to try out different techniques like adding coloured spots, lines, joining parts, blowing, and using tools to mould the glass. He was also very mindful to be Covid safe. Highly recommend.”
“Absolutely fantastic experience - the tutor was engaging, explanatory and kind. We had a really fun time trying to types of glasswork, and got to go home with the pieces we made. It was a really fun session, I learned a lot, and came away with the drive to do more glassblowing!”
“Fun and informative. Mark’s experience & expertise filtered through. Comfortable and positive learning environment. I have already recommended this course to my friends. Thank you Mark.”
