The MFA and Diablo Glass School have collaborated to offer Teen Vacation Camps. Located just blocks from the MFA, Diablo is easily accessible by foot, car or public transportation. Diablos facilities offer glass blowing, flame working and kiln forming studios.

All camps start with an introduction at Diablo and then a tour of the MFA's glass collection. At the MFA, we discuss the history of glass, different techniques and artistic inspiration. After that, the teens return to the studio to start their intensive glass studies.

Teens chose between Glass Blowing and Flame Working and in the afternoon, they all work in the kiln forming studio to create fused glass pieces.

Ages 12-18. Class size limit for Glassblowing is 9 people, and 8 for Flameworking.
