D.C. GlassWorks is a glass-blowing and sculpture studio for everybody.

Located in a garage in an industrial park in Edmonston, the studio offers workshops and lessons for beginners, workshops for intermediate glass-blowers and rental space for professionals.

Beth Hess, a College Park artist featured in the video above, went from being a student at GlassWorks to leaving her job to pursue glass-making full-time three years ago.

If you’re interested, the best way to start at D.C. GlassWorks is to attend one of its regular open houses or take the plunge and sign up for a class. Long sleeves, pants and closed-toe shoes are recommended.
