We enjoyed our class. Friendly instructor with helpful info. It was fun and educational.Our first time working with glass. We werent great at it. Still had something to bring home.We had fun and want to return. Many different projects that have our interest.

My adult daughter and I took a try-it class together. It was a fun memorable experience My daughter is a graphic designer so her art skills are at a much higher level than mine but since neither of us had worked in glass before it was a new experience for both of us. We will definitely go back. I also have a nephew who is a professional glass blower and he speaks fondly of his beginner experiences at Potekglass.

Loved this class I took the kiln formed glass class. It was the first time Ive worked with glass. Large studio to work in with all the supplies and an excellent instructor The time allotted for the class was perfect. I had lots of time to create a fabulous piece. Bring a friend and share the experience I look forward to more classes

I definitely recommend Potek Glass classes. I brought my 3 kids in for a work shop and the kids had a blast. Malcolm was great with the kids. He had a good mix of patience and focus to keep them on track My kids are 6 4 and 2. Piece of cake

We had an absolutely wonderful time with Malcom . It was fun and educational and he made it very safe for us. Everything was prepared perfectly and he helped us bring our creativity out. It was my nephews birthday gift and he totally enjoyed the whole experience

Several years ago I brought my daughter over to an introductory course at Potekglass. Safety is stressed as well it should be. The course was both challenging and fun and we had a wonderful time.We would like to return at some point.

We took the Basics from Boron class here. Malcolm was a great easy-going instructor who adapted to each persons needs and made the experience both safe and fun. We went in having never worked with glass before but came out feeling like we had enough of the basics to come into one of their open sessions to play around and come up with some of our own glass creations. Lots of fun. Highly recommended.

Im giving 5 stars because I visited Potekglass in the newly renovated Flux Arts building for the first time it looked like a creative inspiring place to make art glass. I met the owner and now I am excited to return to take some glass-making classes.They are still building-out their new space and getting settled but what they have already finished is very impressive. Most of the space is workshop but there is a gallery area up front to showcase finished art.I was there during an open torch session when various artists were working on their own in an open studio format. For a fee users have access to a glass-working torch station fuel safety equipment including a ventilation system annealing kilns etc.I highly recommend you visit Potekglass sometime and see what they are all about.

I love this studio but they are moving and I have not been to the new space yet. The owner is great at teaching the classes and is very friendly. He does a great job explaining the ifs and whys of the processes and its a great way to get to experience the different options for working with glass. I would strongly suggest doing their try it classes because everything is included and he walks you through all the processes.

We took the Blowing Boro Basics class as brand new students. Malcolm was very patient with all of us. It was a cool class and we learned some new skills. Would highly recommend
