The Canberra Glassworks tour takes you behind the scenes of Australia’s leading glass studio. You’ll explore the different studios - glassblowing, neon, kilnforming, coldworking, casting, and flameworking - getting a sense of the tools, techniques, and creative processes in each. Watch skilled artists at work, especially in the hotshop where molten glass comes alive, and see the artistry and precision involved in shaping it. Along the way, you’ll learn a little about the building’s history and the role of contemporary glassmaking in Australia today, giving you a full picture of both the craft and its context.
