Celebrate your special day in a creative way at Arts & Glass! At our Pottery-Painting Parties (age 4+), artists pick their own pottery pieces and design them using non-toxic, washable glaze paints. Our team then fires the pottery to a permanent, food-safe, glossy finish. At our Glass Fusing Parties (age 8+), artists learn how to safely handle and assemble designs of brightly-colored glass to build suncatchers, dishes, or even nightlights. Our team then fires the glass in our kilns to a solid, smooth glass work of art. Every party includes a personal party host, private party room, instructional art lesson, all tools and art materials, cleanup, and a FREE personalized keepsake ceramic plate for the birthday child. All pottery and glass art is ready for pickup in 7-10 days. Please visit our website for more information.
