Sunspots Studios Glassblowing offers a captivating experience for visitors. Guests can witness skilled artists transform hot glass into colorful vases, ornaments, oil candles, and more during live glassblowing demonstrations until 4 pm daily. For a hands-on experience, visitors can make their own glass ornament by assisting the glassblower in the "Blow Your Own Ornament" session. The large gift shop showcases a diverse collection of hand-blown glass, glass jewelry, and other American-made artisan gifts. Located in Staunton's historic downtown, the studio is open seven days a week with on-site parking and is handicapped accessible. Reviewers praise the exceptional artistry, knowledge, and welcoming atmosphere, describing it as an "AMAZING experience" and a "wonderful shop" that offers a first-hand education in glassblowing.
Had a N appointment to make a pumpkin. Did not realize it was wizarding weekend, but got a place to park amid the crowds and was able to make my pumpkin. I had the pumpkin shipped to.my home, so I can't wait to see it.

Coolest experience! Not only do you get to watch the art of glass blowing, you get to do it! Highly recommend as a really cool souvenir when visiting Staunton. Jason was really kind, patient, and informative.
