Under the guidance of experienced instructors the students will work as a team to make glass objects. 8 students will be divided in two groups, each with an instructor. Each team will have the task to make a specific glass part. Each participant will rely on the assistance of their coworkers to make these objects. The students will have the option of choosing a specific color. This will help to identify the individuals work later in the finished sculpture. The colors provided could represent your corporate colors. The goal of this workshop it to involve everyone in the process of making the components. A team building camaraderie will form naturally throughout this glass blowing process. Glass blowing requires a complete concentration and focus on the process at hand. Three or more people can work on one piece. As it is in the corporate world, glass blowers rely on other individuals, and form a team to complete a task.

The result of this team building workshop will be two blown glass sculptures, one that will hang on the wall, and one which can hang from the ceiling of the participating corporation. The overall design of the two sculptures is predetermined. The individuality of the finished sculptures will be unique to the team that made its parts. These sculptures will show how each simple but unique object can be combined and become something greater. We will fabricate the finished pieces into the sculptures, pack and ship them.

The workshops are available Tuesday through Saturday. Duration times are based on the clients schedule. 4 hour minimum is required. Call for more information. 860-738-9464
