We invite you to visit us at 10 Bleeker Street in Newark, NJ. Come in for a tour of our facility, including our own “hotshop”—where we keep the 2000°F furnace used to melt and craft glassworks. Or, if you’re ready to begin the journey towards creative self-empowerment and a new life, signup for workshop and kids summer camp.
