Itinerary
In this creative workshop, you will be able to design and paint your own glass plate, using age old techniques that were used as far back as the medieval times: Most of the intricate details in church windows are made this way! Explore the traditional craft of glass art, while adding your own modern touch. There is no prior knowledge needed to attend this class. If you have an idea in mind, we will help you create in a way that works with the medium. The plate will be heated up to 740 degrees, so it is washable and dishwasher safe. In the end, you can take your unique piece of glassware home with you.
PLEASE NOTE: Your plate has to stay in the kiln for a while before it is finished, so you can’t take it home with you straight away. Usually this takes about 1 to 2 days until you can take it with you from our studio. Since the plates are heavy, we unfortunately can't cover the shipping costs if you want your plate shipped to you. If you aren’t in Riga for that long, please consider this in your planning! Make sure that you will still be in Riga two days after your workshop, so you can come pick up your finished piece!

Fantastic experience, so different from the standard trips on the river etc. A chance to let your imagination free. Play with colour... imagine what they will become when heated and glazed. Hopefully do this again some time soon.

We wanted to do something unique and fun in Riga and found this activity!
Glass artist Anna was super nice and helpful person! We enjoyed painting glass plate a lot! 2hs went soo fast and our experience was amazing! Our plate was ready by next day and we were so happy to take our special gift back home!
Anna was also recommended us many cool places including super delicious Latvian food restaurant right next her studio! We felt like we wanna come back to Latvia because of this experience! I 120% recommend you this activity! We will do it again when we come back here!
リガの思い出作りに予約したのですが、素晴らしい体験になりました！ガラス作家のアンナさんは、初心者の私達に丁寧に工程を教えて下さり、素敵な作品を仕上げる事が出来ました！日本のガラス作品の話からラトビア料理、文化ヴィンテージのお洋服屋さんの話まで色々なお話も良い思い出になりました！英語がわからなくてもきっと楽しい体験になると思います！ちなみに作った作品は次の日には完成なので予約は余裕を持って下さい！ おすすめです！！

It was such a nice experience overall! Felt so welcomed 😊 Anna, the owner of the studio was super nice and talented. We were having so much fun with my friend 😊 Anna was also really helpful and explained the techniques and backgrounds how to work with the paints and glass, how the colors would be come out in the final plate - was so interesting to know! We will definitely come back again!
Location was really easy to find. The studio looked nice and unique, and we also bought many jewelries to take home with us ☀️
Thank you again Anna and her co-artists at the studio for letting us to visit! 💜
