This year we have made some changes to our Specialty Workshops
If you are familiar with the
(discontinued) 4-Hour Pumpkin Workshop, you may remember how it was done. In previous years, you would be partnered
with another workshop partner (a friend that you scheduled to come with, or another customer that also needed a
workshop partner) taking turns making your pumpkins in one station with one instructor. You would retreat to the
gallery to design your next pumpkin and set up colors while waiting for your turn at the bench.
This year we are organizing our Pumpkin Workshops a little different. You will now work 1:1 with your instructor for the full 2 hours.
What has changed?
Shorter duration in the hotshop for your appointment (2 hours vs 4
hours)
No workshop partner
No more waiting for your turn
Even more individualized experience with
your hotshop instructor
This year we are offering more dates
3 people per session vs 6 people
What has not changed?
You will still get to make 4-5 pumpkins in the 2-Hour Workshop
You
will still be in the hotshop working with glass for the same amount of time as in the 4-hour
You will still
have time to consult with your instructor and gallery crew to design your pumpkins and set-up colors
You and
your instructor will still take breaks from the heat
Limitations and Specifications:
Workshops cannot be shared with another person. A deposit of ½
of the total cost is due at the time of booking, and the remainder is due at the time of service. If you are
scheduling for yourself and a friend, a deposit will be due for both workshop participants upon scheduling.
Our hotshop is equipped with 3 stations, which means that we can accommodate up to 3 people per session. The largest number of people you can book for is now 3 people per session.
You can sign up for 1 workshop per person. If you wish to sign up for an additional workshop, you can request to be placed on the waitlist.
