During your Design & Dazzle: Design Your Own Glass Icicle session, you’ll select your 1-3 colors and choose your twisty pattern. The instructor will handcraft your glass icicle right in front of you while explaining each step of the glassblowing process.
Each 15-minute workshop is scheduled and priced for one icicle to be designed and created. Bring your friends and family and enjoy a festive, hands-off holiday experience!
Please note this is a hands-off activity. No experience required. 15 minute duration.
Ornament & Icicle Pickup Instructions: Due to glass needing to be cooled gradually in a kiln, you cannot leave with your ornament the day of your experience. We will have a designated pickup slot on 12/21/2025, otherwise you will need to pick it up following our holiday closure when we reopen in 2026. All ornaments must be picked up by 2/1/26, or they will be recycled.
Age: No age limit for design-your-own hands-off activities, but children must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
Waivers: All students and parents of minor students are required to read and sign a waiver, which indicates all of the safety risks involved with glassmaking and provides contact information.
Health: It is the responsibility of the student to take care of themselves if they possess any health or cognitive conditions that could be affected by working in Foci MCGA’s facilities. It is the responsibility of the student to notify staff of such conditions, should it affect their health and impair regular studio operations.
Impairment: Students are not permitted to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol during class.
Fees, Payment Transfers & Refund Policies:
Refunds: Foci MCGA does not fully refund any classes. A 50-percent refund will be given for cancellations made at least 14 days before the start of class. No refund will be given after that time. If you need to cancel, please email contact@mnglassart.org or call 612-759-8476. If it is necessary for us to cancel a class for any reason, a full refund will be given.
Rescheduling: If you would like to transfer your registration to another class/class date, a request must be made in writing at least 14 days prior to the scheduled activity. A transfer fee will incur. Class transfers are NOT guaranteed and are dependent on enrollment availability of the class you seek to transfer into. In the case that your request cannot be accommodated, the above stated refund policy will apply.
Transfer of Funds Fee: Foci MCGA does not allow transfers for Core Classes and Seasonal Discoveries.
Studio Closures & Weather Policy: The studio shall be closed when the Executive Director judges the risk to the health and safety of studio clientele and staff be at risk. This judgement is based upon observations of conditions, local school closings, the State of Minnesota or City of Minneapolis emergency declarations, and the Minnesota DOT Road reports. In the event Foci MCGA is closed due to inclement weather, clients will be notified at the phone number they provided when booking services. If the phone call is not answered a message will be left and an e-mail will be sent. Clients will not be charge for missed rental/class time. Clients may choose to rebook time without penalty or to be refunded for prepaid services.
