Hot Glass! is a groundbreaking study day that provides a unique first-hand experience into glassmaking.

Hot Glass Study Days are available for parties of between 40 and 50 people and take place by arrangement on a limited number of days throughout the year. 

Participants will experience at first-hand most of the processes fundamental to forming fine glass, including blowing, pressing and hand-made paperweight making. They will also visit our museum, the first dedicated to 20th Century British Domestic Glass.

Alongside the glassmaking, there will be demonstrations and explanations of the various different processing and decoration methods used.

During the day there will also be two illustrated lectures on glass history and glass design by the BBC Antiques Roadshow glass expert Andy McConnell.  Between talks, Andy will accompany parties around the Nazeing Glass Museum rooms to see and discuss the many examples of glassware from other leading British glass manufacturers that are on display.

The price for this full day is £39.50 per person which includes a buffet lunch.
