The MFA and Diablo Glass School have collaborated to offer Teen Vacation
Camps. Located just blocks from the MFA, Diablo is easily accessible by
foot, car or public transportation. Diablo's facilities offer glass
blowing, flame working and kiln forming studios. All camps start with an
introduction at Diablo and then a tour of the MFA's glass collection. At the
MFA, we discuss the history of glass, different techniques and artistic
inspiration. After that, the teens return to the studio to start their
intensive glass studies. Teens choose between Glass Blowing and Flame
Working and in the afternoon, they all work in the kiln forming studio to
create fused glass pieces.
Glass Blowing and Kiln Forming $488, Class size limit: 9 students
Flameworking & Kiln Forming $409, Class size limit: 8 students
Teen Vacation workshops normally run for 4 days and cost $650 for Glass
Blowing and Kiln Forming, and $545 for Flameworking and Kiln Forming. This
session is a special Thanksgiving deal!
