Everyone has an artistic side, even if that means you are proud of your stick-figure drawing from Kindergarten. Of course, some of us have a natural talent for artistic expression in varying forms, but thankfully there are experts out there who are patient enough to teach those of us who do not. One of the most beautiful and unique forms of art is glassworks, and it comes in many forms. If you've always been fascinated by glass, then you'll want to try this highly rated glassblowing experience in Cincinnati. Neusole Glassworks in Forest Park is a shop, studio, and classroom all in one and the perfect place to try your hand at glassblowing, flameworked glass, and fused glass.
Neusole Glassworks is the only hot-glass studio in Cincinnati that is open to the public.
It is home to passionate artists who are eager to share this art form with those who are interested. While they spend time creating pieces for their shop, as well as custom creations, Neusole is also the perfect place for those with zero experience to learn more.
Neusole Glassworks may first grab your attention with their incredibly detailed creations, such as this glass figurine of our city's sweet Fiona the hippo.
It is a great place to shop for unique gifts or items for your home, but don't miss out on a chance to visit for a demonstration or class.
You can schedule a visit by contacting them through the website, linked below, which is where you will also find a schedule of classes and demonstrations.
The demonstrations allow you to see how these items are made with skill, patience, and artistic flair.
There are also many opportunities to get hands-on and make your own creation out of glass.
Visitors as young as five years old can try glass fusing, and then older guests can sign up to try glassblowing as well as flameworking.
Glassblowing is such a popular and unique experience.
If you've had this on your bucket list, the helpful staff at Neusole Glassworks will happily help you check it off. You'll be able to create an item, which varies depending on which class you sign up for, and you can even pick it up later to take home and display to show off your new artistic talents.
If you've never seen the process of creating a glass ball, vases, and other items, it is absolutely fascinating.
You won't be able to take your eyes off of the process (and you won't want to if you are working hands-on!).
Art forms such as painting and even pottery seem to be more easily accessible, but glassblowing in Cincinnati is a truly unique experience.
Sign up for a class or demonstration and chances are you'll be hooked on this creative outlet that has the most beautiful outcome.
If you've always wanted to try glassblowing in Cincinnati, head to Neusole Glassworks. The patient and passionate staff will introduce you to this fascinating art form and you can get hands-on to give it a try for yourself.
