Winter Solstice 2012

Testimonials

Very much enjoyed your class.  Will be taking another.
Hope you do Groupon again.  That was a great discount.
It was everything I hoped it would be. I do plan to take another class.
Super class!  Instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful.  Fun, Fun, Fun.
I loved it! The Glass Academy staff is awesome and really helpful. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I love the flexibility of being able to create original art.  What a wonderful place. Thank You!
I heard about the Glass Academy through Greenfield Village but this Groupon coupon put me over the edge to get over there and I’m sure I’ll be coming back.
The instructors were great and personable, very helpful and knowledgeable.  I can’t think of anything I’d change.  This class was A LOT of fun and I look forward to returning soon.
Everything was great.  We came in thinking we were making a cherub, which was offered, but were pleasantly suprised when we found out we could make anything we wanted (within design perimeters).  We will definitely be watching for e-mails on events to come back.
Amazing class. Historical knowledge of glass was a bonus. It was fascinating and engaging. Instructor was great.
I would like to THANK YOU again for the great tour and hands on project.  The clients really enjoyed it and the glass stamps were really fun for them to walk away with.  They loved blowing the glass bubbles, how fun!
We love the goblets and use them all the time, and we think of you especially when we are using them.
Those of you who have never been to the Glass Academy in Dearborn do not know what you’re missing.  Chris and his staff create the most incredible hand crafted glass works of art that your eyes have ever seen.  I addition, he offers many sessions which not only create, but also educate so that you can learn what goes into making beautifully unique pieces.  Do yourself a favor and check out their schedule on line, then GO and see for yourself.  I promise, you will be amazed!
The intricate designs that they made, just like shaping clouds in a midnight sky, absolutely blew my mind.  How they could make small glass horses was beautiful.  Glass has ‘rockability.’
I am very happy that the Glass Academy is located right here in Dearborn.  I thought the glassblowing class was very exciting and I look forward to taking another glass making course this summer with CCS, states 11th grader Nada Hmayed.
I was the winner of a hand crafted smoothie glass when my name was choosen at the Veg Fest.  Not only did I get to pick out my own glass at the studio but I also get to take it to Red Pepper Deli so they can fill it up with my favorite smoothie.  I choose an awesome blue and orange glass for the Tigers!  Thank you Glass Academy.
AWESOME!  Don’t change a thing.  Environment is great; instructors are great.  Totally loved it.
The glassblowing trip was fun because they showed the properties of glass, states New Morning Middle School science student.
Loved it – will come back.  The instructor was very helpful and the greeter very informative.
I just wanted to say that the Hot Glass coffee and dessert evening offered for Henry Ford at the Glass Academy was fantastic.  My co-workers and I really had fun and I think I can safely say we will participate again.  We’ve proudly spread the word to others in our office.  I have my glass displayed in my office if you want to see if for yourself.   Thank you again for the opportunity.
I LOVED the class.  What a great opportunity, so unique and fun!  I would love to take more classes, it was a blast!
I love your Academy!  I experienced the molten glass class, made a flower, and it’s the pride and joy item I show off in my home!  I have attended many of your events and think the studio is a ‘must see’ adventure for any out of towner, or locals who weren’t aware of your location.
The glass magnet sits on my desk as a constant reminder of your thoughtfulness.
Really enjoyed the beadmaking class.  Bill really encouraged us to experiment! We are coming back for more.
You guys do incredible things at the Furnace, and your kindness is rivaled only by your artistic ability.

What people are saying…

It was fun to try a brand new experience.  Enjoyed the history of glassblowing.  Instructor was very skilled at his craft.  Background and history regarding the craft was very informative.  Hands on instruction was very good with assistance only as needed.
We love the goblets and use them all the time, and we think of you especially when we are using them.

I wanted to let you know how beautiful the awards are that you produced for the Dancing with the Stars event.  So many people commented on the design of these pieces.  It’s been great working with both of you and look forward to future projects.

Zeinab Mokdad, a 10th grade student was very excited about the beads she made at the Glass Academy.  She is thinking of incorporating them into a necklace for her Jewelry/Metalsmithing class at Fordson.
