In this class the instructor will review the entire process of creating art from glass on the torch. To begin, you will watch the instructor create a bottle stopper and pendant, then you will take charge of the torch and create your own bottle stopper and pendant as the instructor guides you step by step. We can also do private classes for couples, friends and family members as well for an additional fee. You will be able to take your hand made treasure with you to show off to your family and friends. Instructor Greg LeFrancis of LeFrancis Glass Blowing Studios has been creating and teaching glass classes on the torch for over 10 years. He has taught over 12,000+ people over the last 8 years. He has had work published in The Flow magazine and has won awards at numerous glass expos. His easy going teaching style makes the classes relaxing and fun.

While the location was a but hidden, it was definitely worth the hunt The staff were awesome! Friendly, patient, and encouraging. It was essentially a private lesson and well eorth the price.
Very knowledgable, friendly, and patient experts! Hands on experience was scary and exhilarating! Look forward to next class on my next Vegas trip!
A glassblowing class is not something you expect to do while in Vegas, but while in Vegas you should expect the unexpected. This was a wonderful way to spend a few hours. The class begins with a short tour and then a demo of the piece you will make. Once the demo completes, each student gets a chance to make the piece with one on one help from the instructor. No experience (or talent) is needed, the glass is surprisingly forgiving. In a short period of time, you have a wonderful souvenir and a new appreciation for the Chihuly pieces you can see in the Bellagio. Don't hesitate to take this class!
Fantastic, fun experience! We wanted to do something fun and unique during our short trip to Las Vegas, and this was perfect. Greg (owner / our teacher) and his father Jeff are friendly, talented, incredibly knowledgeable, and passionate about their art. We had so much fun and learned so much - Greg is a most patient and skilled teacher - and made two unique and beautiful pieces with our own hands! We definitely will be back for more classes each time we return to Las Vegas. I believe we have found a new hobby and artistic outlet. Highly recommend this hands-on and thoroughly enjoyable experience!
What a wonderful class! The instructors were clear, engaging, and did an excellent job explaining and demonstrating each step. When it was our turn at the torch, their patience, guidance, and encouragement made the experience feel both comfortable and exciting. It was such a memorable experience. We are already looking forward to signing up for our second class.
I had such an amazing experience at this glassblowing class—truly one of the highlights of my trip! Greg, the owner and instructor, is an exceptional teacher. He’s patient, encouraging, and incredibly skilled at breaking down each step so even beginners feel confident and capable. What makes this experience even more special is that glassblowing is truly a dying art, and it’s inspiring to see someone like Greg so passionate about keeping it alive. His dedication to teaching and sharing this craft makes the class not just fun, but meaningful. From start to finish, the class was hands-on, engaging, and so much fun. Greg creates a relaxed and welcoming environment, and you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. Watching glass transform into something beautiful (and actually getting to do it yourself!) is unforgettable. If you’re even thinking about trying glassblowing, don’t hesitate—this class is absolutely worth it. Thank you, Greg, for such a fantastic experience.
Very interesting and informative had a great time very patient would highly recommend
What a fun experience. Greeted by an older gentleman who explained a few details about the history of the place then moved to a back room to begin the lessons. You get to make two items...a glass topper that can be inserted into a cork...and a glass ornament with loop you can hang. Instructions were detailed and fairly easy to grasp...as always practice makes perfect so doing the second item you feel a little more confident. The instructors were friendly with great senses of humor and there's another room filled with amazing glass art you can buy at very reasonable prices. When you see what expert glass blowers can create it really puts your creations to shame. * smile * This is a great way to kill some time during the day in Vegas. A+++
We have been wanting to do this it was amazing and they are very helpful we had the best time! Im so glad we did this!
Experienced. Talented. Safe. And really patient instructors. Had a fantastic time. My daughter thinks this will be her new hobby.
This was my second time doing this and I enjoyed it. They do amazing work and I’m so impressed. Being able to make something that I take home is an added bonus
It was a great experience with one on one instruction. I had so much fun and got to make some really awesome glass ornaments, icicle, pendant, and wine bottle topper.
Such a unique experience! The artists there are kind, patient and informative! I will definitely be looking for this experience again if I make it back to Vegas.
The class and the instructors were wonderful...They explained everything very clearly and made it very easy to understand and execute... We will definitely be back for more classes.
This experience was an amazing beginner course on the joy of glassblowing, and with such experienced and passionate teachers, anyone can have fun and appreciation for an artform. Although it certainly gets harder, what we made was quite easy to start. We will definitely be returning to this studio when possible!
A lit if fun, teenagers and adults were all able to make beautiful projects. Instructors were very helpful and we all had a great time.
This was the best part of my entire Vegas trip! The gentlemen are passionate about what they do and did a great job giving us a background first. Then we received one on one instruction from a man who has been doing glass blowing as a career for over 40 years. He did an exceptional job demoing and then walking us through the steps as we were doing it. It was so amazing to have such a great instructor where I could basically do it by myself (and I’ve never done it before) with his guidance. I can’t wait to go back to visit them to learn more from their expertise! The price point is also much lower than anywhere else I’ve seen glass blowing offered. Don’t miss this exciting opportunity!
This was such a cool experience!! Robert was a great teacher, very patient and he explained things clearly. My niece and I had a wonderful time and would recommend this studio to anyone looking for a fun couple of hours with built-in souvenirs!
Greg is very interested in giving you the experience to learn, make any mistakes, & teaches you how to fix them. He is extremely patient and interesting, sharing his experiences as a glass artist. We really enjoyed it!
My husband and I had a blast with this experience! The instructors were amazing and explained everything helped us create unique pieces! We loved it so much that we signed up for more classes to create more awesome pieces! I would highly recommend this experience!!
Awesome time here! Learn tons about glass blowing and make your own souvenirs. We had a great time and the instructor was knowledgeable and very patient.
We had an amazing time. Father and son team have a wealth of knowledge and experience that they share with guests in a very understandable manner. We loved our experience and highly recommend this to anyone looking for something outside gambling.
Greg did a fantastic job helping us learn how to create by using the torch. Loved seeing all the work for sale as well. Will definitely be back for more classes.
I had an amazing time in this class! Greg was my instructor and he explained everything I needed to know to make my first pieces safely. Tom also helped me. Both men were patient and gave me personalized attention and instruction. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in glassblowing. I will be back for another class.
This was a great fun experience. The owner was great. You can tell he loves his art and teaching others. All 3 of us got to create 2 glass items. If art and creative thinking are in you wheel house. Do it it was fun.
A one on one glass "firing" experience! It was awesome! If you are an artist of any kind, this class will feed your soul! -- if you aren't, you will still have a blast -- my brother did! If I lived in Las Vegas I would be here at least once a week!! Thanks to the great people teaching this event!!
The instructors were great! Bought this for my wife's birthday and she said it was one of the best birthday gifts I've ever gotten her. After the class we signed up for more classes!
This event was a team building exercise and a really good time. They showed us all the different items made of glass and how if you took the series of classes what you work up to at the end. Very friendly and knowledgeable and we were able to take our creations home. It was something none of us had done before and it was fun to see how different each item was even though we were all following the same instructions.
This was a fantastic experience. The instructor was great and very knowledgeable teaching me things about glass that I was not aware of as well as teaching me to make my own pieces. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for something new to try
Amazing experience. Instructor was knowledgeable and very helpful and patient showing us how to perform the glass blowing. Have some memorable pieces to take home. Definitely recommend this new experience.
Amazing personal experience, really unique and brilliant to see and learn from experts. Was just our party of two at the time so very personalised and had a great time. Came away with lovely unique glass creations to take home!
Making a piece to take home. Getting to experience how to make it. Instructors were hands on with you
This was perhaps the coolest thing I have ever done. The guys are first-rate instructors. I would recommend LeFrancis to everyone.
They offer an interactive class where you watch the master glass blower first, then you do it yourself with his guidance. You will make a couple of small things out of glass to take back home. If you enjoy the class, you can take more as they are progressive to match your skill level. It is a family run business and they are very nice people.
You absolutely have to take one of their classes. They were kind, helpful, friendly, fun, and wonderful instructors. We cannot say enough positive about the experience!
Really enjoyable and great sense of accomplishment in creating something by hand. My wife and I have always thought it would be cool to learn how glass blowing was done, yet never even thought we could learn how to do it. Did not know classes were available to those who were not interested in a career in glass blowing. I highly recommend.
An absolutely fantastic experience. Trust me - you've never done anything like this before. The instructors were amazing and very skilled.
What a wonderful experience! Robert, with the cool Aussie accent, patiently demonstrated then supervised while I made two lovely glass souvenirs. Greg the owner and Tom the other glass artist were super friendly and supportive. I highly recommend this adventure!
This was excellent! The instructors were very friendly, very knowledgeable, and extremely patient with their guidance. This was absolutely the most unique experience I've had while visiting Las Vegas. I will definitely book this again!
These guys are great! Their artwork is only exceeded by their customer service, great instructors and very patient! Definitely recommended if you're interested in glassblowing! We will be back!!!
My friend and I were looking for something different to do in Vegas. We came upon LeFrancis Glass Blowing Studio. Really enjoyed our class with Greg. Learned some of the basics of using a torch to make a glass ornament. Greg spent quality time with us to explain the process and didn't rush through it. His adorable dad, Tom, gave us a little tour and shared some history. We'll definitely go again during our next visit to Vegas.
Very great class!! Very good instructions which made it easy for us as we have never done anything like that before. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for a fun date night or a new hobby to pick up.
Amazing 1:1 class. He showed me how to make each item then walked me though how to make my own. Its so cool to see how glass can be molded shapped and even cut! I was able to make/take 2 items. They had some pre-made items for sell also.
I had an awesome time. The instructor was patient and kind. Everyone we meet. My friend and I are definitely going for a second class.
I was looking for something different on our family trip to Las Vegas and came across LeFrancis Studios. I set up an appointment over the phone for a class with my family of four and arrived to a very clean and professional studio. My kids are 22 and 19 so it is always a challenge to find something they are interested in, and they both loved the class so much that they actually requested to come back later in the week! Greg is a great instructor and really made everyone feel comfortable. We each made a simple wine stopper and a small ornament to take home, and Greg showed us what our next class would be by making a icicle that he gave to us as a souvenir. One of my kids actually was so impressed he now wants to take glass blowing classes when we return home. Greg has him hooked on the art. I highly recommend this activity and Greg's LeFrancis Studio.
