Chrysler Museum Glass Studio

Wonderful friendly staff and amazing facility! We were on Virginia Beach for vacation and wanted to do something different. So happy we stumbled upon this glass studio and decided to end our vacation by taking a class to make a jelly fish paper weight. Karl, the instructor, and Alex, the teaching assistant, made this a wonderful experience for my boys. We had a great time and created beautiful pieces. I wish we came earlier in the week so we could bring the pieces home with us but they will be shipped. Highly recommend!

I recently attended the Pumpkin Glass Class, and this was my very first glass-blowing experience. WOW! The instructor was incredibly friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. My pumpkin turned out absolutely gorgeous—better than I expected! I had such a great time that I’ll definitely be signing up for another class soon. Highly recommend!

I had an amazing visit to Chrysler Glass Studio! The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable, and the glass art on display was stunning. Watching a live glass-blowing demo was a highlight. Whether you’re an art lover or just looking for something unique, this place is a must-see. Highly recommend

YOU MUST VISIT THE GLASS STUDIO! The demo's are at noontime. Sign up in advance for one of their classes. We really like that in less than an hour we both made a drinking glass out of glass. The staff is wonderful. The experience amazing and we will never forget our visit here.

Support your local glass artist! This is THE place to meet some of the most creative and talented makers in the 757. With a rotating cast of studio assistants, there is new energy every few months. Worth coming back again and again!

Our group had a great time in our class making swizzle sticks and straws. The teacher and staff are great. The experience was very hands on as we melted and shaped glass rods and straws with torches. We learned how to melt glass and work with colored glass. Safety was a priority and instruction was clear and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We’re hooked and hope to return soon.

I would highly recommend getting the schedule and being certain to attend the demonstration or taking a class!!! We just happened to walk in because we thought it might be ‘interesting’. Well they made quite an impression! We were sorry we couldn’t get into class, but we caught the full demo. We have a new appreciation for glass art! It’s an all new studio and space. The Chrysler Museum next door allowed us to see a huge collection of glass art as we learned more about this fascinating medium.

I highly recommend the noon glassblowing demonstration, Karl and Phoenix put on an excellent glassblowing show for my family and a few others! Karl is an exceptional and informative teacher with a great enthusiasm for the art. We all left with a new appreciation for glass art and hope to return! The show was free, as is admission! They had a microphone and live video on a tv showing an up close view of the demonstration, so anywhere you sit you will have an amazing experience!
