Our core activity in the glass studio is training through production.
Every year three new associates enter our two-year training program. “Training through production” means a practical, vocational training that is orientated around the design and production of glass objects. Trainees and staff work together to manufacture many various types of glass products. These include corporate awards and gifts, custom one off commissions, architectural work, and small production runs.
As with many trades, skills and sports, repeated practice is the only way to improve. This is certainly the case when training to be a glassblower. Our associates work 8am to 4:30pm every weekday, and often put in many extra hours during evening and weekends to build their skills.
At the end of the program associates are well equipped to start their own businesses as practicing glass artists.
