Glass can be exquisite in its myriad forms, from the ornate windows of a Gothic cathedral to the crystalline webbing of a freshly vandalized windshield. Reflect on beauty with this Groupon.

Choose Between Two Options

  • $49 for an Intro to Glass Blowing class for one (a $100 value)
  • $96 for an Intro to Glass Blowing class for two (a $200 value)

Students learn techniques for forming glass and creating colors as they create their own free-form piece. Classes are held on weekdays at 6 p.m. and on 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, though the schedule may vary from week to week. Students can pick up their project 72 hours after class. Pieces that are not picked up after 90 days become the property of the studio.

Peter Patterson Glassworks

Though glass art has been Peter Patterson’s career for more than 35 years, glimpses of his other passions come through in his pieces, from his knowledge of plants to his scuba explorations of exotic seascapes. Indeed, he shapes searing-hot glass with the same fluidity as water, drawing on lessons from master teachers and his own background as an illustrator. The forms often flow around pre-fused decorations and even phosphorous elements that glow in the dark and ensure that the studio is entirely boogeyman-free. Students work one on one or in small classes as Patterson shares the first steps of creating his complex sea forms, memorial urns, and incandescent light bulbs.

The Groupon Guide to: Airplane-Seat Pockets

Most air-travel anxiety stems from not knowing where the plane is going, which local news personalities might be on the flight, and what exactly will be in the seat pocket in front of you. For now, modern science is only able to anticipate the last part:

  • Pamphlet detailing what to do if everyone on the plane turns into an expressionless cartoon

  • Copy of SkyMall dog-eared to the page with the slippers that scream when you step in something wet

  • Action figure of captain currently flying the plane

  • Discarded packet of Edible Jet-ibles™—"The Crackers That Break Apart Just Like a Real Boeing 737"

  • Plastic bag (for your secrets)

Why aren’t there more flight-attendant action figures?
