My family (six non-artistic adults aged 30 and up) had a blast blowing glass pieces at McFadden Art Glass. As other reviewers commented, Tim is an excellent teacher. He's a very talented artist -- check out his gallery for some beautiful works. I'm sure we'll be talking about how much fun we had for many vacations to come. A couple... More

My boyfriend and I attended date night on Friday night and it was a great evening. You can bring beer or wine and watch Tim blow some awesome glass pieces. After a few pieces the interactive portion begins and you can make your own pieces with his assistance. He is an awesome teacher with the patience of a saint. Most... More

I've taken a lot of classes -- college, graduate, life enrichment, you name it. Tim McFadden is without a doubt the most effective, patient, thorough instructor I've ever had. That is rather important when you're about to handle molten glass. He's got a great dog, too. :-)

My husband made reservations as a surprise for me as I have wanted to do this for sometime. Tim was awesome. Super friendly and informative. Like the other reviewer said, he really lets you do it yourself unless you are about to mess something up. I made a flower and my husband made a paperweight. Tim is going to ship... More

My husband and I decided to try this place out after seeing the great reviews here. Glad we did! I got to decide what to make (a bowl) and what colors I wanted it to be. Tim is a very good instructor in that he let me make the piece from start to finish but knew when to step in... More

Tim is awesome, patient, and really a genuine guy. It is so worth your money to make your own art. Ornaments, jewelry, and many other items are available for you to make yourself and take home or they will ship for you. Check out the gallery in his home but be sure to see the great bathroom artwork. Yes, the... More

I've visited there several times and love it. I could sit there for hours and watch them blow glass. There are usually several people working and they let you know what their doing. Some of the things they make are awe some. I don't know how they do it. You must visit their shop to see all that they make.... More
