Seattle has one of the largest glassblowing communities in the nation; come hang out and learn from the best. Craft with fire and the power of your breath, melting glass into bowls, floats, or rock 'star' paperweights. Your glassblowing class will help end homelessness in Seattle through the Pearl Jam fundraiser.

You will be notified approximately 3-5 days following the event when your custom creation is ready for pick up from our Madrona location.

    Sounds fun, but I wonder what makes it a Pearl Jam thing? I guess nothing, except their charity kind of arranged the opportunity, eh?
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    Few years back they did a sweet Pearl Jam Given To Fly Glassybaby. Maybe they will make a new PJ run of Glassybaby.
