If you've ever wanted to try glass blowing,
the Phoenix Glass Center is the place to be.
Fox 10's Danielle Miller is learning exactly
what it takes to shape molten glass.
Good evening, everyone. If you guys
are looking for the perfect holiday gift,
this may be it. We're at the Phoenix Glass Center
with Justin here. He's the owner,
his wife as well, Jessica.
Really cool stuff here because, Justin, you can come and do a class,
take something home, so that can be a gift,
or you can come into your gallery and purchase a gift.
Correct. We have several items available
to purchase in the gallery, and then we offer
lots of different classes.
Hot shop, blown glass, torch work, lamp working,
fused and stained glass classes.
You can get gift certificates and give them for the holiday. You
Come in and purchase things.
Classes are very unique.
It's an experience, and you get to walk away with a nice item.
It is fun and guided.
Yeah, I was going to say, I mean, these are
one-of-a-kind pieces, just gorgeous stuff
you have here.
Yes, it is.
Yeah, it's all unique.
It's all made for me, my wife, employees here,
or fellow friends or artists in the community.
Okay, and let's walk over into the shop,
if we could, to kind of show, if you are signing
up for a class, this is where all the magic happens.
It is, yeah.
That would be the Hot Shop or Blown Studio.
My wife is in the reheating chamber there.
That gets up to about 2,100 degrees.
We use that to melt in the color and the glass
so we can keep shaping and manipulating it.
And they take their work home?
They do.
It does have to cool down overnight,
but they can come back and pick it up Tuesday through Sunday.
Amazing.
Justin, website, where do we find more information?
All the information is on the website, phoenixglasscenter.com.
If you don't find what you need, go ahead
and send us an email and give us a call.
Awesome.
And you guys are here pretty close to downtown Phoenix.
We are just north of the airport.
We are right downtown.
Okay.
Perfect, Justin.
Thank you.
We appreciate it.
All right.
We'll send it back to you guys.
