Join us for a special day of fused glass jewellery making. Using clear, coloured and dichroic glass and a range of techniques, you will create your own beautiful fused glass pieces in the kiln. You will be amazed at what you can achieve in a short space of time.

Discover what this amazing material can do by spending five whole days with us exploring a range of glassmaking techniques including glass blowing, kiln forming, fusing as well as beadmaking and sandcasting. The course will include talks and expert demonstrations. Come and learn, enjoy and share the art of glass at The Hub.

Discover the art of lampworking beads. One of our experienced glass tutors will guide you through the fundamentals of lampworking (flameworking) using a torch. You will work from your own torch to design and make 10 or more beads over the day, using a wide selection of colours and processes.

Our further glassblowing course is an excellent follow-on day for those who have already taken the beginners’ workshop. Learn new techniques to create different glass objects and consolidate your skills learned in the previous session.

Join us for a day exploring the ‘Fossil Vitra’ technique to create new effects in fused glass. Using prepared organic objects such as leaves or flowers you will work with glass powder applications and stencilling to create stunning fossil-like effects.

Take inspiration from nature on this three-day flameworking workshop. Using heat and gravity to manipulate glass in the flame you will learn methods and techniques to bend, stretch, sculpt and carve molten glass, creating sculptural objects, inspired by natural forms.

Our one day glassblowing course is both an exciting experience day and a great introduction to glassblowing for beginners. Learn the fundamentals of this ancient craft while you make your own glass objects, using hot, molten glass straight from the furnace.

Discover the art of fusing glass and explore a variety of techniques. You will learn the fundamentals of glass cutting, assembly, inclusions, kiln firing and slumping under the expert guidance of the Glass Hub Tutors. A great introduction for beginners or artists working in other mediums to experiment with this art form.

Drawing concepts and ideas from the movement of the material, you will explore the potential of flame worked Borosilicate (Pyrex) glass. Rods and tubes will be transformed, using gravity, centrifugal force, blowing and manipulation with tools into components that will then be connected to form assembled structures.
