Pocket Vases and Big Smiles: UMD Visits the Studio

A good day at the Glass School!

Today we hosted a glass-making workshop for a great group of friends from the University of Maryland’s STAMP community — new artists diving in, laughing, experimenting, and making some seriously cool fused-glass pocket vases.

Instructors April Shelford and Patricia de Poel Wilberg guided everyone through the technical steps, with Jennie Lindstrom (artist and beekeeper extraordinaire) keeping the creative energy buzzing!

Workshops like this are some of my favorite moments at Washington Glass School — friends learning something new together, trying tools for the first time, and after firing, getting art they made with their own hands.

If you want to plan your own fun studio event, check out our website — we’d love to have you in the mix.
