- **Event Description**: Students will work in clear glass focusing on cylinders, bowls, platters, forms with waists, and bottles.About this EventStudents will work in clear glass focusing on cylinders, bowls, platters, forms with waists, and bottles, moving methodically from one shape to the next. Refining skills, improving heat control, building confidence and surveying blowing theories will be covered. Instruction will be personalized to build on individual skills, and one-on-one time will be given to help find simple solutions to common struggles. Each day will begin with a lecture and demonstration, followed by independent blow slots where teams will rotate daily to underscore the value of teamwork and collaboration.What to Expect: Students will work together and learn to manipulate molten glass (2000 degrees). Safety and tools will all be covered in a fun and exciting environment. The hot shop is a loud studio, and can get quite warm. Glassblowing involves a variety of activities including sitting, standing, and working with hot glass. The environment can be very hot and loud at times. Handling glass and tools may require a certain level of dexterity and ability to lift 5-10 lbs approximately. Clean-up time is included in the duration of class, and usually the last 20 minutes of class are dedicated to cleaning your workstation. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page. To learn more about accessibility the Accessibility page on our website.Additional work time for intensive students: Students will also have access to additional hours in the hot shop and cold shop, without instruction, on Tuesday - Saturday from 5-8pm (EXCEPT on Wednesday evening May 27th when there is another class in the hotshop.) Students must be able to work safely in the studio, and be able to set up their area without needing instruction. Students participating in student hours will need to be approved by the instructor and TA’s.Eligibility: This class is a good fit for intermediate skill level or people with at least 2 years of experience. Open to ages 14 and up.Pick-up: The glass needs to cool down overnight, so the students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work.We recommend registering for classes early to reserve your spot! We base materials, and teacher needs off of student enrollment. Early registration not only guarantees your spot in class, but also helps to ensure the class will run. Classes with low enrollment may be cancelled within two weeks of the start date of class. Contact our Registrar of Education, Ari Eshoo, at arianna@urbanglass.org if you have questions about the class or would like to arrange a payment plan.5 Sessions, Tuesday - Saturday, May 26th - May 30th, 10am-4pm each dayInstructor: Boyd Sugiki and Lisa Zerkowitz

The organization provides access to and an education in glass for professional artists, seniors, students, and members of the public of all backgrounds and familiarity with the material. We offer year-round free and low-cost programming through our 17,000 square foot studios, robust class schedule, fellowship and scholarship opportunities, exhibition center, and in-house printed magazine.Founded in 1977 by a group of dedicated artists, UrbanGlass sought to confront the many barriers limiting creative access to glass such as the high costs of real estate, equipment, and the scarcity of technical expertise. From the organization’s conception it served as it does today: As a creative hub and unparalleled resource center for artists, enabling this material to become available for experimentation beyond the confines of factories and universities in New York City for the first time. Today, glass is seen as an integral component of contemporary art’s complex landscape."
