To schedule your lesson

Please contact us via email or phone. Our main line is (312) 465-8375 or please email scheduling inquiries to megan@igniteglass.com. In the extremely rare event that we do not have an available time-slot that works with your schedule, we will refund your purchase as soon as possible. At the beginning of your lesson you will need to fill out a liability waiver. Children and teenagers under the age of 18 must have a legal guardian sign the liability waiver for them. If this lesson is a gift please send us the name and contact information of the person that will attend a class.

Want more than 1 hour?

We schedule lessons for 1 to 2 students for a minimum of one hour and a maximum of four hours. If you’d like to purchase a 2, 3, or 4 hour lesson, simply increase the quantity and add it to your cart! You can use these hours all at once or separate them over time — it’s up to you, and there is no expiration for purchases!

Preparing for Your Class

When preparing for your glassblowing class, please remember to wear closed-toe shoes and non-synthetic materials, e.g. cotton, wool, denim, etc.
A completed liability waiver will be required to attend a glassblowing class.
