Glassblowing - Paperweight

Create your own unique glass paperweight in this traditional glass furnace class.  Students will learn the basics of glass furnace work while making their own round paperweight.  Students will be taught about safety, working with glass blowing equipment and tools, while working with Delphi's "Double Dragon" furnace.  Individuals will work with Delphi instructors and can participate as much as they feel comfortable.  Students will complete one paperweight during class.  The creation of the paperweight does not require blowing the glass but students can add a bubble to their paperweight if so desired.
