About the Instructor: Parker Stafford began blowing glass at the University of Southern Illinois at Carbondale while studying to receive his M.F.A. in Sculpture in 1994, and except for a seven year stint teaching Sculpture at Radford University, his focus has remained in glass since his graduation from SIU-C in 1996. Parker has taught glassblowing to hundreds of students, many who have never had any glassblowing experience. Parker brings his enthusiasm for the medium to beginners in a way that is easy to understand and works one-on-one with all of his students regardless of class type.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1556127287861{padding-right: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Blow Your Own Pumpkin” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Work with our glassblower to make your own pumpkin.
