We do not blow glass here at the Mt Rainier facility.

How do I register for a class?
We now are linked with PayPal – and class signup is easy and online! – or if you prefer the old-fashioned way – please call or email to hold a space and mail a $50 deposit check made out to ‘Washington Glass School’ to Washington Glass School, 3700 Otis Street, Mt Rainier, MD 20712.

Heaps of parking along the street & right in front of the door!

Are you near a Metro Stop?
We are 2 miles north of the Red Line – Rhode Island Metro.

If you want to take a bus from the Metro, take the T18 to New Carrollton, the 82 to Mt Rainier, or the 83 bus to Cherry Hill; getting off at 37th Pl, and walk down to the school. Since March 2017, DC Metro has added a new direct bus to Mt Rainier that travels along Rhode Island Ave during rush hour – the G9 bus.
