18th Annual Glass Pumpkin Fest at Dearborn's Glass Academy

Showcasing Family-Friendly Live Glass Blowing Demonstrations, Handmade Glass Pumpkins, and Seasonal Decor at this 17th Annual Event.

On October 10th, 11th, 17th, & 18th in the Dearborn Studio from 11:00 AM - 4:00 PM, the Glass Academy proudly presents the 18th Annual Glass Pumpkin Fest Show & Sale. A blend of handcrafted, unique, and original glass pumpkins will be available for purchase, alongside family-friendly LIVE glass blowing demonstrations taking place in the studio’s 14,000 square foot hot shop.

The Glass Pumpkin Fest Show & Sale draws people from around the state and Canada to purchase custom glass pumpkins, pumpkin table top lanterns, and many other handcrafted glass pumpkins in one-of-a-kind styles and shapes that cannot be found in stores. This is truly a highlight of the fall season! Parking and admission is free. Pumpkin prices start at $42, with various sizes and styles to choose from.

A Pumpkin for Every Taste

Last year’s 2025 Signature pumpkin is called Sugar Plum and is a gourd-geous, sparkly, purple sugar pumpkin that we know is going to be a fan-favorite! Check out how we make the "lantern" style of our 2025 Signature Pumpkin below!

Farmworker Justice

For each 2025 Signature Pumpkin sold, the studio gave a donation to Farmworker Justice. The check was presented on our weekly YouTube Glass Blowing show "The Gathering Point".

Farmworker Justice works with community, regional, and national partners to stabilize our nation’s farm workforce by improving economic opportunities, healthcare access, and working conditions for farmworkers.
