If a day’s dream has cast you the brave inflater of molten glass through a blowpipe, the reality is within reach. For a unique glassblowing experience, visit STARworks Glass Studio in Star, North Carolina. This public-access glass studio, since 2008, has been a creative place where inspiration comes through your work, or by watching other artists craft their imaginings into interesting gifts or keepsakes. Glassblowing demonstrations are open to the public on scheduled days, in addition to classes and workshops. And while you’re there, be sure to grab a specialty coffee or some locally made lunch at the STARworks Cafe and Taproom.
