For participants, the most rewarding part of the retreat is when they get to blow and shape the glowing, molten substance into forms of their own imagining, which finally cool into crystalline, finished works. In this way, glass art is no longer remote and unaffordable. The museum also runs a series of one-day and five-day workshops throughout the year.
當燒成橘紅色高溫的玻璃膏，藉著吹拉幻化成自己的想像，冷卻後成一件件水晶般透明冰瑩成品，玻璃藝術不再是遙遠或昂貴的夢想，這是所有參加學員最深的喜悅。
