Massimo was a fun and... - Massimo was a fun and patient teacher. This was such a good experience and a great way to break up all of the museum and church visits with something more interactive. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in glass. You do not need to have experience or be artistic at all. Massimo. Will make sure you create something lovely!

Amazing and informational class with helpful instructor - Massimiliano was a great instructor. It’s mesmerizing watching him work as he demonstrates how to glasswork is done. He helps walk you through the process and ensures you’re safe while working. He had complimentary water, safety glasses if you didn’t have your own glasses, and let you pick the demonstration piece and the glass colors you use to make your pendant. He is very knowledgeable and the experience was definitely worthwhile.

Great!! Way better than just watching a demo! - This was an amazing an personalized experience! He explained history of Murano glad, how he got interested and then made a piece from scratch, explaining his process. My husband and I were both then walked through how to make our own take home souvenir. Great experience! Not for children but would definitely recommend to angering wanting a true experience!

Wonderful Experience! - It was fascinating to watch Massimilio at work. His creations are just beautiful. He was a very thorough teacher---and very patient, ready to lend a hand (as in “come to the rescue”) if needed. My son and I truly enjoyed this class. Highly recommend.
