Pumpkin Patch: Craft Your Own Glass Pumpkin

Embrace the vibrant colors of fall at Dougherty Glassworks with our “Pumpkin Patch: Craft Your Own Glass Pumpkin” experience

Step into our warm, inviting studio, where molten glass transforms into autumn-inspired art. In this hands-on session, designed for both beginners and those curious about glassblowing, you’ll craft your very own glass pumpkin—a perfect centerpiece for your fall décor or a unique seasonal gift.

Whether you’re aged 14 and above, or joining our specially adapted version for kids aged 6–14, this workshop welcomes all who are eager to explore the art of glassblowing. You’ll choose from a wide palette of autumn-inspired colors, apply your design, and work with our team to shape and blow the glass into a pumpkin. We’ll finish each piece by adding the signature stem, so you leave with a beautifully completed work of art.

Each 75-minute session begins with a safety briefing and guided instruction, ensuring you feel confident as you step up to the glassblower’s bench. With 4 participants per session, you’ll receive personalized attention in a cozy, intimate setting—the perfect way to experience the creativity and warmth of fall.

Once formed, your pumpkin will cool overnight in our annealer and be ready for pickup a few days later—just in time to enjoy for the season.

No prior experience is required—just bring your curiosity and creativity. This seasonal workshop is a chance to enjoy the magic of glassblowing and leave with a handmade pumpkin you’ll treasure year after year.
