We had the opportunity to participate in the glass workshop while in Yellowknife and are so glad we did. The workshop was informative, interesting, and overall a lot of fun. Creating our own glass pieces was a great experience, and they make wonderful souvenirs to take home. The staff are incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. We would definitely recommend this experience.

This is an excellent place to visit if you want to take a break from winter activities in Yellowknife. There is a shop at front you can buy very nice glasses but also a workshop to attend to decorate your own. We had so much fun at the workshop that we made two extra glasses. The sandblasting technique is not difficult to master. Lots of design to choose from. The owner Matthew is super friendly and with lots of patience to teach you how to make a professional looking product. Well worth the price we paid. Highly recommended... read more

Heard great things about it and wow what a lovely experience! Matthew is enthusiastic and engaging and is really hoping to get across the work of his 4 Rs instead with RETHINK being the key 4th! His stories of rethinking older “junk” and making it into a useful product is inspiring. He has many fun antidotes of his time in Old Town. We had a fabulous souvenir to take home and spend a lovely afternoon creating. Matthew is patient and you can buy more than one item if you like! Great fun!
