About this Event
Dates & times: May 16, 10 am – 4 pm and May 17, 10 am – 4 pm
In this two-day workshop, students will learn how to make a one-piece, functional glass pipe using basic flameworking techniques. On day one, we will focus on the basic foundations of working clear, hollow tubing and then move on to color application on day two. This will be a fast-paced workshop that will give students an insight into the world of working borosilicate glass on the torch.
No prior experience is required to participate. This workshop includes lunch in Pilchuck’s historic dining lodge.
Participants must be 21+ to sign up.
About Jason Elliott
Jason Elliott is a glass artist who works primarily with borosilicate glass, creating sculptural and functional forms merging technical precision with speculative design. Originally from Dayton, Ohio, Elliott has been working in glass for over 25 years, developing a practice grounded in structural clarity, material fluency, and conceptual inquiry.
His work draws inspiration from futuristic aesthetics and systems of communication, exploring how objects can embody connection, transmission, and the exchange of ideas. Through clean geometry and engineered detail, Elliott creates forms that evoke both scientific instrumentation and imagined technologies.
Balancing craftsmanship with curiosity-driven experimentation, his sculptures reflect an ongoing interest in how material, form, and concept intersect. Elliott’s work invites viewers to consider the evolving ways we communicate — with each other, with our environment, and across time.
