Signed up for this glass blowing class with my girlfriend. The gallery is amazing. It has the most unique art, made from glass. Class was limited to 2, and we had hands on experience in making an egg and flower in multi colors.John was amazing in showing us how to make our art. James is a quirky owner, who can do amazing things with glass and put up with all my questions.This is a hidden gem, that you should go to and learn how to work with glass

Great experience, Ive taken my daughter there on her birthday the last 2 years. James Stone is an inviting and informative artist. He has been very helpful in encouraging my daughter to pursue glassblowing

James and Carol are the real deal. They are kind and honest and make beautiful glass products and decorative pieces. I am a member of the collectors club and now I own beautiful glassware to enjoy.

Awesome place! James, John and Carol were all super nice and accommodating. I booked a private party for 9 people to make ornaments and we had a fantastic time. Everyone was patient and helpful and we cannot wait to see how everything turned out. Well worth every penny and hope to be back in the future.

Visited the store with a friend. We were lucky to be there while the owner, James, was blowing a glass bowl. Fascinating to watch. He was very gracious and friendly. My friend ended up having him make another bowl just for her. Absolutely beautiful! What a great day!

I found out about this shop while looking for a glassblowing class, and as soon as I walked in I knew it was the right choice. You can honestly feel that everyone here loves what they do, and it reflects in their work and classes, and the classes are truly an experience. The owner and teacher, James, is extremely knowledgeable about not only the practice but the history and global influence as well. His expert guidance, with occasional assistance from his protoge Jon, will let you take home a beautiful custom piece. Just remember that youll have to retrieve it the next day, ends up glass is hot!

Trust James to do an awesome job.I mean that in two ways.First, his execution of the craft. His experience and love for the art is visible not only in all of his work but also in the way he presents himself. You know youre dealing with a professional.Second, his ability to understand what you want in your head and bring it to life. I wanted to design a custom liquor bottle as a wedding gift for one of my best friends. The liquor bottle in my head had a lot of details, lot of symbolism, lot of fine work and engravings that made it look like a top shelf liquor bottle and the only one of its kind in the world. Sitting 3000 miles away, and having to work with some poorly drawn sketches on paper towels by me, James was able to manage a process end-to-end and produce something that was better than I had imagined or hoped for. He truly made something special that my friend can cherish for life :)I 100% recommend getting in touch with James whether its for designing something custom and unique, learning his art, or even just watching him create.

Weve been to Stone and Glass many times and have loved each experience. We love the hands on approach offered through the classes, and its awesome to take home something youve made. I would highly recommend this experience as its fun for all ages. We have a six piece collection of drinkware now. They are durable and artistic and our friends always comment on how lovely they are.

We visited Stone and Glass while visiting the area. This was the last activity in a whirl win, action pack week of SeaWorld and DisneyLand. Our experience was absolutely perfect and would highly recommend this to anyone. We had a private session with James and John. We made drinking glasses and a flared small jewelry bowl. Our daughter is 10 and was able to participate, which made the experience that much more memorable. She had a blast!!! James was great with her. Everyone at the studio made this an fantastic bucket list memory. Too bad we live so far away... Id be visiting often. The Andersons thank you for this once in a lifetime experience!!!!

Needed thaat last minute Christmas gift for my mom, knowing she loves hand crafted glass, I headed to Google! Stone & glass was the 4th option I think, but just from looking at there pics I could tell this place was the place I needed to go. I called they were open on Dec 23rd at 6pm! Spoke to a very friendly women not sure of her name, got there the place was perfect and there was a class going on very cool to watch! Selection was great! And prices very reasonable for hand crafted right there! It was also very cool to learn that the piece I bought was fresh out of the oven that morning! Thank you again and we will definitely be back!

The 4 hour class was actually a 45 min history lesson and 15 minutes of each person watching James blow our very own $150 dollar glass.
