Amazing experience! Brit is fabulous - My sister and adult son went to Glass Deer. None of us have done anything like this before, nor are we very artistic or creative. Brit was fabulous. She was interesting, informative, creative, patient and very clear with each step and provided instructions that were easy to understand and follow. She has work displayed throughout that are gorgeous and provide ample examples of her artistic talents. We each picked a different thing to create and we were involved & interested and learning with each piece. Each one had different steps to do and learn from. We would all do this again - at least if it was Brit. She made what could have been a scary and daunting experience seem quite doable, interesting & fun.

Amazing experience we will always remember - Brittany is such a talented individual. Just visiting her studio was an amazing experience. Working with her in her hot shop was a great experience for me, my husband and our 11 year old twins. We all made our own piece to take home and we are all so proud of our pieces. Couple notes, only buy tickets for those that want to participate and make a piece. We bought 4 tickets, if we were to do it again, I would not have purchased for my husband who is not super creative. It was a rainy day when we were there (which was perfect) because it was fairly cool, but the hot shop is HOT. Close toes shoes if possible, hair back if your hair is long. Really unique experience that I would HIGHLY recommend!

I actually did it! I made something beautiful! - I had a 1 on 1 glass blowing class. Brit made the intimidating process of working with molten glass safe and made it seem almost easy. I took home a piece I’m truly proud of.

10/10 Fantastic Experience! - This was an absolutely amazing experience! Britt was so knowledgeable and patient with us. We had zero glass blowing background and this was our first time near anything like this. We got a great introduction to the basics of glass blowing with an emphasis on safety, and left with a better understanding of a hobby I’ve always wanted to try. Britt allowed us to “play” with a glob of hot glass before we actually attempted to make our take home piece, and I thought that was really nice of her. It helped us get used to the tools, the movements, and also helped take the nerves and anxiety away when starting on your take home piece. When creating your take home piece, Britt is there to assist in any way and answer any questions you have. I truly felt like I created the majority of my glass piece, which was an awesome feeling. She steps in when needed but stands back when you have it. Lastly, she has an amazing studio filled with her and her student’s work - which is wild. You are able to purchase select pieces she has on display as well! All around, 10/10 experience and would highly recommend for anyone thinking about it! Thanks, Britt!

We were blown away by the experience. - Excellent instructor! So fun. Would definitely do this experience again. Hope that once COVID is over we can return to try the glass blowing. You

Hands on Fun - We had so much fun heating, handling the tools and it was a true hands on experience. Got everything shipped to us that we made. How amazing is that! We will do it again!

Enjoyable learning experience - Russ was GREAT! He worked with us and was very patient for two first timers. Even my teenage son had a great time!

Intriguing and engaging experience. - Brit was our instructor. She was engaging and answered a myriad of questions from the basics to the coefficient of expansion. It was fascinating. We enjoyed the experience and being able to be the 'designer' of our piece. The next time we are in the area, we will do this again. Thanks to Brit for an unforgettable afternoon.

Highly recommend Gilbert’s Glassworks - We took the Glass Furnace class with Brit as our instructor. The class and Brit was fun, informative and inspiring. Brit’s easy flow of teaching combined with her extensive experience in working with glass allowed us to easily learn and be creative in making a beautiful and treasured piece of art. Highly recommend Gilbert’s Glassworks.

Amazing - Getting my hands on working with the glass was neat. The instructor was lovely and went over safety first.
