Safety Policy

 

These policies and accompanying release are directed primarily for the hot glass workshops.  However, all participants of any workshop must read, understand and agree to them. 

Working with hot glass is an exciting and fun experience.  We want to make sure it’s a safe one.

Assume everything in the studio is hot, sharp or capable of hurting you. Be careful where you lean or place your hands. If you prefer not to participate in a certain step or activity, let us know! This is all about learning, having fun and exploring the process of working with hot glass.

Pay close attention to your instructor.  He/she will demonstrate the entire work process and walk you through each step. Ask questions or let them know if you are uncomfortable at any time.

It is important to be constantly aware of yourself, others, and your surroundings!  A studio can be a dangerous environment where things can happen very quickly. Stay focused and pay attention always. Watch out for others and always announce when you are moving with hot tools or hot glass in hand.

Here are few basic things you need to know:

  • Wear closed toe shoes and natural fiber clothing (no synthetic clothing).  Do not wear loose, baggy or “flowing” clothing.  Blue jeans and a long sleeve cotton shirt works just fine
  • Tie long hair back or wear it under a cap.
  • You are welcome to bring sunglasses if you are sensitive to bright light.  We will supply safety glasses and didymium glasses (for flameworking) for the workshops.  You are welcome to bring your own.
  • Drink plenty of water prior to the workshop, you may bring sports drinks or your own water/container if you so desire, but we have plenty of water at the studio.
  • Do not wear jewelry that hangs away from your body or can conduct heat, we advise no jewelry/watches at all.
  • Finally, please use common sense and communicate to us if you have questions or concerns.  We are here to teach you and make sure you have fun and stay safe!
