Come along to The World of Glass and see our LIVE Glassblowing demonstrations. Watch as our resident glass artists take blobs of glowing glass from kilns many times hotter than the oven in your kitchen! Be amazed how they create beautifully shaped decorative pieces just by blowing down a tube and using simple tools. Other displays include how we can trick glass into changing colour.
