We had a great time doing the glass blowing class. Our teachers, Mark and Simi were very patient and helpful. It was something completely different and really interesting. We didn’t walk away with a masterpiece, but we had lots of fun!

Absolutely loved my introduction to glass blowing with Mark. He is so encouraging and patient and you take home 2 pieces that you make in the workshop. Can’t wait to sign up for more!

Mark was great, explained everything calmly and clearly, running us through the steps and safety while allowing us time to explore the techniques and material. Fascinating to see how the colours change through the cooling and will definitely come back for more.

This was a Father’s Day present with my dad. It was a great experience for both of us. You were able to make anything and everything and they teachers were very supportive to turn it into something to hang or stand or look more like art Great day thank you!

I've never done glass blowing before so didn't know what to expect the class was great and fun. All the students that day (Sunday) was nice and friendly. Mark and Simmy was wonderful they both took their time out to attend to whoever needed help in class. Many of the students and incluing myself done 2 amazing glass objects to take home with us. I will go back in future and take another course. It was well worth the money, we even got an extension in our class so we're not rushing with our work.

Excellent introduction to glass flame-working with Mark Eliott. The session was framed perfectly as a chance to be creative and learn a skill without a plan. First we learn how to work glass in the flame and add colour, it was an opportunity to create something with a specific form or abstract, with assistance whenever needed. Then we moved onto glass blowing which resulted in a variety of shapes and products. Mark was a great teacher that provided a relaxed but informative environment, and he was assisted by SImi who was equally wonderful. My measure of an introductory session is if I want to go back and do more, and I definitely want to continue my glass working journey. Thoroughly recommended.
