Review:
Racine has a history of glass blowing. The Prairie School established a hot glass shop as part of its art department in 1969. In 2005, a growing community of glass blowing artists collaborated to establish a glass blowing studio and gallery. Dilapidated stables in downtown Racine were restored for the purpose. Tours and instruction are available for groups and individuals. In two hours trainees can learn to make a paperweight or ornament. There are seasonal classes, such as making hearts for Valentines Day and pumpkins for Halloween. Studios are rented by the hour and the artists' work is for sale in the gallery.
