KT Glassworks accommodates facility and equipment rental to professional glassblowers who have the ability to blow glass independently. All rentals are on an hourly basis. Please contact us to schedule a time to rent the hotshop.
Rates reflect the use of reasonable clear glass consumption (10lbs per hour). Heavy usage of clear glass and extra annealer space will incur additional charges. We melt GLASMA batch 705 from Sweden. We do not supply colored glass for renters.

Annealers are set on an overnight annealing program and are unloaded the next morning or afternoon. Longer annealing programs are available at an additional charge. Please let us know at the time of scheduling if you think you need a longer annealing cycle for your work.
Reserving Studio Time
To reserve studio time, please email us. If you have special requests for extra annealer space, a longer annealing cycle, heavy usage of hot-torch, or other special equipment needs, please let us know ahead of time.
Artwork Pick-up
Please plan to pick up the work that you make in the studio between Tuesday-Sunday. Our annealers typically take 16-24 hrs (or sometimes longer for thicker work) to come down to room temperature. Our studio has limited shelf space, and won't be able to keep any renter work on our shelves.
