Veterans Day Glassmaking

Thanking members of the armed forces for their service, Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center is offering free Make-Your-Own experiences to veterans and active duty military during the Veterans Day Glassmaking program from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 9, 2024. 

With the expert guidance of our glass artists, learn how to shape hot molten glass into a beautiful Air Trap Paperweight using a historic antique mold unique to WheatonArts! Participants will choose a color, add molten glass to a mold, and discover the secret of creating these organic shapes. 

Call 856.825.6800, ext. 152. to ask about appointment space availability. Registration closes at 4 p.m. on Friday, November 8, 2024.

Participants and their families will receive complimentary passes to WheatonArts during the event. Visit the Pottery Studio for demonstrations and kiln tours, take a self-guided tour of the Museum of American Glass and The Down Jersey Folk Life Center, take part in our family art activities, listen to live music, partake in the campus-wide scavenger hunt, grab a bite to eat, and more!
