How to Choose the Right Glass Workshop
For groups over 20, mosaic lamps are the only practical option. For small teams (5-16) who want something more hands-on and impressive, the hot glass blowing at $110/person is a memorable experience that most people have never tried. The combined hot and cold glass session at $165/person is the most comprehensive option for teams with a bigger budget.
One thing to keep in mind: all hot glass workshops are in San Jose. If your team is based in SF and doesn't want the drive, the mobile mosaic lamp instructor at $79/person comes to you. The San Mateo mosaic studio is a middle-ground location for Peninsula teams.
